๐ Flipping the playbook for AI coding
Cliff Brake July 02, 2025 #ai #programming #documentation #testingA lot of focus these days is on "good AI prompts."
Some of the best prompts may be documentation and tests. Write your
CHANGELOG.md
entries first, then update the documentation, then write the
tests, then tell the AI to update the code to match.
We tend to get it backwardsโasking AI to generate tests and documentation after the code. Flip this and do the docs and tests first.
Your thinking will be better, and you'll move faster.
