How is AI actually changing your day-to-day development workflow?

Introduce yourself

Hi everyone! 👋 I'm David we build web tools for clinics (patient records, doctor scheduling, that kind of thing). I mostly work on the frontend side these days.

Happy to be here — looking forward to swapping notes on how people are using AI in their workflows, and picking up a few new tricks along the way!

Where are you in your GitHub journey?

Looking for the latest developer trends

And where are you going next on GitHub?

Next up for me: I want to start contributing small fixes to open-source projects I actually use, instead of just lurking and reading issues. Also hoping to explore more AI-assisted coding workflows and see what actually sticks versus what's just hype.

What technical skills or projects are you working on?

I mainly work with JavaScript/TypeScript and React on the frontend, with some Node.js on the backend side. Lately I've been experimenting with AI-assisted coding tools to speed up debugging and code review.

For me it's mostly saved time on the boring parts boilerplate, writing tests, and explaining unfamiliar code before I dive in. It's also become a decent first-pass code reviewer, catching small things before I even open a PR. Where it still trips up is anything requiring real context about the codebase or business logic I've learned to double-check its suggestions rather than merge on trust. Overall it hasn't replaced thinking, but it's cut a lot of the busywork out of my day.

Thanks for sharing your take! Sounds like we've landed on similar workflows glad it's not just me relying on it for the boring stuff.
