So few followers, it seems developers did not realize Aspire is on Bluesky. Developers make this number up. I'm sure we can reach 1000 followers by the end of the week.

Share for more reach!

🤓 I asked @GitHubCopilot to review a PR. It suggested a change. I told it to go ahead and apply it. Then it opened a PR back to me—complete with a gorgeous auto-generated visual of the update. This isn't coding anymore… it's collaboration. 🤯 #AIwon

I put #GitHub #Copilot + #context7 to the test in #VSCode. 🚀

In 60 mins, I went from a blank #NextJs starter to a polished Netflix clone ("Nextflix") using The Movie DB API + tmdb-ts.

What once took teams weeks, AI helped me build solo. 🤯

🤓 Tell me you use #code's — #GitHubCopilot ✨ button near the commit message input textbox (to auto generate a message) without telling me that you do...

I'll go first 🤣:
A generated commit message, that reads "Implement feature X to enhance user experience and fix bug Y in module Z".

🤓 One of my favorite hidden powers of @GitHubCopilot in #agentMode: it doesn't just suggest fixes for Git chaos—it executes them. I've let it untangle some real disasters, and it's pure magic. ✨ #git

This is a blog post about how to use Aspire to write custom deployment code to deploy a static site.

More importantly, it's really about the current shape of deployment abstractions in Aspire and how the space is evolving.

Catching so many callbacks to old songs & videos in these visuals—feels like a tribute to everything I’ve loved about #deftones. Had "Deftones" tattooed across my shoulders for 20+ years & they still deliver. This track slams: melody, riffs, drum fills 🔥 youtu.be/U_uVVO7eGic
