Good luck! Definitely would have come if I were in New York! 🤗

Btw, if you are in Toronto you gotta try the food scene here! I won't claim it's the best, but it is up there!

I see lots of hype with GPT-5 release as coding agent! ✨

But yeah, didn't feel like it's there yet, Claude Sonnet still feels more natural to work with! ^_^

Will try to spend more time over coming days!

On top of that, not being able to iterate directly on the code it generates makes it a disconnected experience.

GitHub Coding Agent is a great example for fully integrated experience where PR and PR review comment flow comes naturally, some we do almost every day!

Today, Jules officially launches out of beta. The beta allowed us to test and learn usage patterns and system limits. We’ve updated our plans to better align with your daily use of Jules and are introducing paid plans that will help us build a sustainable future. Usage Limit Changes The usage limits that were available to you during our beta are decreasing, unless you’re a Google AI Pro or Ultra subscriber. These new limits take effect today.

jules.google has gone out of beta today. That means if you were using it for free, your allowance has gone down from 60 to 15.

I have not found it useful for Android apps, as it keeps failing to setup Android SDK resulting in unable to validate changes it makes!

Nice! 👌🏽 I presume lots of context feeding along with official documentation and guideline for it to succeed.

Also, curious to know how big the navigation graph was to begin with.

Next thing would be to add natural language processor to analyze data and provide on-demand chart. I think NotebookLM might be able to do this job 10x better, free!

Android Device Catalog Browser | Explore & Analyze Android Devices A comprehensive tool for browsing, analyzing, and searching Android devices from the official Device Catalog. Filter by manufacturer, specs, and form factor with detailed statistics.

Managed to decouple `"@github/spark": "^0.0.1"` module from the prototype app and launch it! 🚀

This was one of my shelved idea to analyze Android Device catalog available from Google Play console.

Very happy with the outcome, specially stats page with data insights 📊

Fixing GitHub Coding Agent’s Firewall Issue for Android Projects If GitHub coding agent is having issue downloading artifacts from different URL, consider adding them to allow list to fix those issues.

Almost like 1-line fix! 🧘🏽

If GitHub agent is failing to download maven artifacts, just ensure domain is not blocked by firewall.

See GitHub's official guide on this: docs.github.com/en/copilot/h...

GitHub Spark is only available with Copilot Pro+ subscriptions, which include 1500 included premium requests. Since each Spark prompt consumes 4 premium requests, the Copilot Pro+ subscription allows for a maximum of 375 requests. This is because 1500 / 4 = 375

Apparently I misunderstood the messaging. The monthly premium request you get is used by Spark.

So, 375 spark message is not on top of that allowance! Got clarification from GitHub customer support!

Good to know! 😅

Now the question is - how do I take this Spark prototype app and host it outside! 🤔

Currently, @github.com allows Spark apps to be exported to repo. However this can't be deployed as is, because these apps uses `"@github/spark": "^0.0.1"` node module that is not public! 🥸

One of the idea I had was to build a Android device catalog browser app using the data available from Google Play.

With few hours of iteration (about ~40 spark messages), I was able to build fully working site that lists all known Android Devices and some analysis along with it! 📊

Recently got access to GitHub Spark, a no-code prototyping tool like Lovable, v0, or Bolt.

First time using tool like this, and it's capability is no joke! Being able to build a working prototype is just amazing! 🤩

Loved building some concepts I have had for long time!

I love the commitment there from JetBrains! Looking forward to see winning projects! 🏆

I really enjoyed my 'mini' TRMNLs so far. Nifty gadget that stays in the background providing useful and timely content. ❤️

This looks fabulous! iWant lol 🤩

Ideally, the global `copilot-instructions.md` would be enough, and you shouldn't have to do any custom instruction as the agent should learn from existing code! However, if agent consistently gets derailed this might be one of the option to keep it on the right track 🛤️

Github agent custom instruction example.

Github agent custom instruction example.

GitHub now allows `*.instructions.md` that can target specific path in your repo.

If you are going AI agent first for your project, it might be worth spending few minutes adding custom instructions for specific paths like `db`, `ui`, `di` etc.

Ghost of Yōtei - Games | PlayStation At the northern edge of Japan, beyond the reach of the Samurai, a new warrior rises from the ashes of her homestead.

Looking forward to this upcoming living art 🎨

I don't have PS5, this might push me to get one 😅

Yep, huge fan of Wise for international travel and sending money abroad! I also got my mom onboard, she loves it!

Haven't had any issues, except I can't withdraw money using Visa card in my origin country! abroad is fine! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Found it, it does use premium request with some bundled allowance per month for Copilot Pro+ plan

- "Up to 375 Spark messages included per month"
- "Spark messages use premium requests included in GitHub Copilot plans. Each Spark request uses 4 premium requests."

#Copilot #Spark #🤖

Also, not very clear if during this preview phase it uses the premium LLM usage quota from your account.

Here is the official blog "GitHub Spark in public preview for Copilot Pro+ subscribers"

Just saw email about GitHub Spark! Interesting playground to build web apps!

I wonder if selected suggested pill will always result in same result! 😆

Just noticed a new addition in the GitHub sidebar — looks like they’re promoting their MCP Server!

I don't have good use for it, as I don't work on any OS project that is managed on GitHub! However, I think I will give it a try to get familiar with MCP world.

#MCPServer #GitHub #AIAgent

Neat! 🤖

Self reminder to not only review AI generated code, but also test solution despite having enough test coverage!!! 🙃

There is a reason the warning is always there! ^_^

Anvil was quite successful inside and outside of Square, but now it's time for the next big improvement. Metro is 95% of what I pitched as Dagger 3 within Square. I'm excited.

Wow! This is big! 😲🤩🥳
