That answer used to annoy people. They wanted a single winner. But after using all three on real projects — not demos, not toy repos, actual client work and my own side projects — I’ve come around to the idea that the “best AI coding assistant” question is the wrong question. https://anooptube.in/blog/post53/ Sun, 16 Aug 2026 13:11:18 +0530 https://anooptube.in/blog/post53/ Flutter 3.44 has been out since May, and by the time I got around to actually upgrading a project, I realized I’d been ignoring the more interesting half of the release. It’s not just UI widgets anymore — it’s AI tooling baked straight into the framework. I spent a weekend actually using Agentic Hot Reload, wiring up a Genkit flow, and pointing an AI coding assistant at the new Dart and Flutter MCP Server. https://anooptube.in/blog/post50/ Sat, 15 Aug 2026 19:48:00 +0530 https://anooptube.in/blog/post50/ Every “build an AI agent” tutorial I ran into lately starts with pip install langchain or pip install langgraph. Useful tools, but they hide the actual mechanism. Before reaching for a framework, I wanted to see the loop with my own eyes — so I built the smallest working agent I could, in plain Python. Turns out it’s not much code. The core loop fits in about 60 lines. This post walks through building that loop from scratch: what an agent actually is, what the ReAct pattern means in practice, the full working code, a real trace of it reasoning through a task, the ways it breaks, and when you should stop doing this yourself and reach for a framework. https://anooptube.in/blog/post48/ Sat, 15 Aug 2026 19:48:00 +0530 https://anooptube.in/blog/post48/ Six months ago “vibe coding” meant typing a vague prompt and hoping the output compiled. I did it. It worked until it didn’t — the moment a codebase got past toy-project size, prompt-and-hope fell apart. What replaced it, quietly, wasn’t a better prompt. It was a different job description. The shift nobody announced I still write code every day. I just don’t type most of it anymore. The work moved up a level: instead of implementing a function, I write a spec for what the function needs to do, constraints it has to respect, and then I watch an agent build it.
