What I Learned Building This Blog

What I have learned so far

This is my first post, I am testing some functionalities of the power of creating a blog with NextJS, Tailwind and MarkDown.

It should be emphasized that now with this AI and vibecoding makes things much faster, what I do think, is that the wrong approach has been given, since I think that in recent years very useful tools have emerged that help us engineers from all branches in our day-to-day work, and it is also important to emphasize that these are not "magical" tools that do the work on their own.

It is for this reason that waves of detractors have arisen, composed of people who do not want to progress, people afraid of learning new things, people who believe themselves irreplaceable in their work and even people who have tried it but when they do not do AI everything for them, they leave it lying down and say; "this is useless".

My experience with this

In my experience, all this has helped me to be a better professional. We do not gain anything by resisting change, on the contrary, it nourishes us more as professionals, as people, being constantly changing adapts us to constant learning.

As for this, I attribute a lot of my learning process to building this blog thanks to the fact that it allows me to learn quickly with:

  • Quick explanations.
  • Almost immediate access to education only by introducing one question.
  • Examples of quality.
  • Step by step guide with detailed explanation in case you need it.

Final thoughts

I know that this can generate controversy, especially, it can cause noise in those more experienced who are used to doing things in a way, however, the vibe coding goes beyond giving instructions and waiting to receive the next uber (or any other application), just by writing a prompt.

If you are interested in this debate about programming with AI, I leave you two readings: the present and future of artificial intelligence and Is AI replacing developers?.
