Are you tired of forcing your developer workflow into generic tools like PowerPoint or Notion? What if you could build your own custom tools, perfectly tailored to you, in just a few hours? Thanks to AI, this is now easier than ever.
In this talk, Rafael Mendiola. ( https://x.com/GroundControl ) shows you exactly how. Watch him build two game-changing tools from scratch: a presentation engine that generates slides in your personal style, and a developer notebook for brainstorming and documenting ideas with your AI agent.
In this video, you'll learn how to:
➡️ Build a custom presentation engine: Use Vite and React to create a slide generator that crafts perfectly styled decks in minutes.
➡️ Create an AI developer notebook: Use Astro to build a collaborative space where you can brainstorm and sketch out ideas with AI agents like Claude and Cursor.
➡️ Turn code into docs instantly: Leverage AI to research your codebase and automatically create permanent, searchable technical notes.
➡️ Master the new economics of tooling: Understand why building your own AI-powered tools is a superpower for modern developers.
Stop fighting your tools and start building tools that are a perfect fit for you.
