AI

Remember how AI kept getting stuck in endless loops in Part 3? The secret ingredient we were missing wasn’t more prompting or better AI models - it was context. In this episode, we’ll transform your AI coding assistant from a confused helper into a documentation-powered expert. The Context Problem Towards the end of our last coding session with Kiro IDE, I hit a wall. The AI was stuck in an endless loop, trying to fix problems without really understanding the That Open Company framework. It was inventing solutions when simple built-in functions already existed. ...

Remember that specification we brainstormed in Part 2? It’s time to turn those ideas into working code! In this episode, we’re diving into Amazon’s newly launched Kiro IDE - a revolutionary development environment that brings spec-driven development and AI coding agents directly into your workflow. Let’s see how AI can transform from brainstorming partner to coding companion. From Specs to Code: The AI-Powered Development Journey The leap from specification to implementation used to be the biggest hurdle in software development. But with AI coding agents integrated into modern IDEs, we’re entering a new era. Today, I’ll walk you through the real-world experience of using Kiro IDE to build our BIM validation app - including the wins, the challenges, and the crucial lessons learned. ...

Remember in Part 1 when I promised we’d build something revolutionary? Well, before diving into code, let’s talk about the secret weapon that makes modern BIM development so exciting: AI-powered brainstorming! Today, I’ll show you how AI can transform your app planning from hours of head-scratching into a streamlined, collaborative process. The Problem: Starting is the Hardest Part We’ve all been there - staring at a blank screen, knowing we want to build something amazing but unsure where to begin. Traditional planning involves endless meetings, vague requirements, and specifications that change faster than you can implement them. But what if AI could be your brainstorming partner? ...

What if I told you that you could automate BIM validation just like software developers deploy code? Imagine catching errors, enforcing standards, and ensuring quality automatically using open-source technologies paired with AI. Welcome to a new era in Building Information Modeling (BIM)! The Problem: Manual BIM Validation is Broken Let’s be honest - manually checking BIM models for compliance is tedious, error-prone, and expensive. Every project involves multiple stakeholders uploading models, each requiring validation against project standards. By the time errors are caught, rework costs have already started piling up. Sound familiar? ...
