It works perfectly fine.

Have you never heard of a monorepo?

There's a much more interesting idea that I'm waiting for somebody to do, which is just have AI break down a PR into digestible chunks for me. Stacked PRs are a nice idea but they require the developer to follow the pattern. I'd rather be able to get a big 50+ file PR, and have it be broken down into bite size areas I can review and check along as I go.

This would be especially helpful for mobile, where reading a traditional diff is basically impossible.

Like it or not, it's the only language that'll cross over web backend, web frontend, iOS, Android, TV, Windows, Mac, et al. And with something like tRPC your data being fully end-to-end typesafe too.

Almost all apps are just CRUD. The code is not that interesting. The valuable IP is the product.

I think that's a silly read of what they're saying

Yes that's the normal way of doing things? Why would someone buy a business with no user base?

What do you need consistency for

Is there a reason you're being an asshole?

I have 20 years of experience and I don't handwrite any code anymore. Opus does everything, and it only needs a bit of steering occasionally. If you can give it guardrails (ie a pre-existing design system) and ways to verify its output (ie enforce TDD and use Chrome to visually verify) then it gets it right basically every time.

Anything to do with Code. Not on Mac or iOS, and not with local sessions or cloud sessions. Normal Claude chats send notifications fine.

Not for me

I’ve tried everything. Regular Claude chats notify me fine, but nothing from Code - neither a cloud session or remote control.

They already have cloud environments you can use, though they're fragile as glass

It would have surely taken less time to just set up notifications for the Claude Code app? Are they ever going to do this? It's baffling to me that they're just skipping over letting you know when a task is completed... this is basic stuff.

Tanstack Start is the gold standard here. It’ll do a static export no problem.

I mean look I don't like literally any of Atlassian's products, but they are not a dying company by any measure. They print cash.
