Cooking up something new

WE ARE SO EXCITED TO HOST THIS!! bsky.app/profile/seat...

@iame.li presenting at the @expo.dev event at @internetstudio.bsky.social!

@expo.dev is so cool, we love hosting them, and they just announced how easy it is to upgrade everything!!

I'm considering hosting an INTDEV original monthly meetup, focused on AI Agentic coding. I have a few ideas for names. I'd appreciate some feedback, even if it's "they all suck".

🫣 Behind the scenes look at Expo Agent this Wednesday at our Seattle Meetup. 📍 Where: 1928 Pike Pl suite 301 ⌚ When: Wednesday 5pm-8pm 🍕 🍻 🎤 There will be pizza, beverages, & lightning talks including a little demo of Expo Agent. luma.com/pteieuif

In this AI coding age, I wonder are libraries dying? When you can get an agent to inline your own utilities and tools, you get: smaller bundles, no supply chain risk, faster installs, and full control.

Join us for food while we host another @expo.dev event next Wednesday at @internetstudio.bsky.social Now's your chance to give a talk, reply with your idea!

What skill should I make next? skills.sh?q=caidanw

AI agents are just state machine loops

Join us tomorrow for another exciting Expo & React Native event! luma.com/2jdqvdoq

What a beautiful way for it to die

New website! Shout out to the @internetstudio.bsky.social for the solid design and coding work Hannah (design) Elijah (globe code) and all the others

variant.com is so sick! Prompt was, "Deep Sea Aquarium"

Finished my longest autonomous coding session yet: - 181 guiding tasks across 6 milestones - 3084 tests created across 123 files - 570 commits created

I created the INTDEV Skills repo! It contains all the information your agent needs to get up and running with our open source tools. Please let me know if you run into any issues. Check it out here: github.com/internet-dev...

Updated @ambrosiaastrology.com Dedicated hero section with focus on the star map, blurred background on body text for better legibility, and other adjustments to text size and contrast.

Designed and coded a custom website for @ambrosiaastrology.com Looking up from Seattle, WA it has full celestial body tracking for all planets plus the moon, sun, and a few fixed stars. Updates their position every second. Dawn, Day, Dusk, and Night themes change based on time of day.

Releasing Daedalus, a beans based AI coding workflow. Read my article describing how this came to fruition. caidan.dev/blog/2026-01... Check out the repo here, github.com/internet-dev...

Daedalus is at the point where I'm able to reliably start using it to create bugs and plan new features for itself! You can also see some of the other features I've implemented, like "experts" that provide feedback.

103 commits and a few hours. Daedalus attempting to bootstrap itself.

Talos has been working away

In 10 minutes my custom agent has created 29 new tests

My gf made a fun video for my birthday

First long run was successful

I'm building an coding agent orchestration tool... more to come soon.

this is superrrrrr sick work by @caidan.dev caidan.dev/portfolio/as...

I can't believe I made it to the front page of Hacker News yesterday! I didn't even realize it until a friend sent me the link! news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4661...

Trying out some hoodie designs for @internetstudio.bsky.social

Updated ASCII Clouds 🌩️ - Settings are preserved in the url params for easy sharing - Export the current frame to a PNG - Record and export a video - Fixed pausing when switching tabs/windows Share your favorite ones with me, I'd love to see! caidan.dev/portfolio/as...

Testing GIF export

Built out a ASCII Cloud tool. Which one is your favorite? Try it out on my site: caidan.dev/portfolio/as...

Have you ever seen such a beautiful ASCII cloud?

Made some mesmerizing ASCII clouds

This video shows how different noise patterns behave when mapped into 3D space. Change the noise → change the world. All deterministic. All math.

Refined

Really proud of this (incredibly subtle) animation I created for this search component. Hint: look at the border radius.

Finished designing and implementing my blog with custom styling for markdown. Plus a few fixes to other routes to get everything consistent. I'll be porting over some more old articles soon. In the meantime, checkout the markdown styles test page: caidan.dev/blog/

Happy new year!

Preview of my new year project

Performance improvements, behavior tweaks, visual adjustments on my boids project Try it out: caidan.dev/lab/boids/

Spot the difference(s)?

Built tree navigation using animated SVGs

I like to post everyday with something demo-able, but this side project is a bit more complex and needs a few days to cook. Feel free to try it out in the lab: caidan.dev/lab/boids/

Do you recognize this iconic building?

finally landed it! Tap is your all-in-one sync tool for the Atmosphere: webhooks, backfill, filtering, signaling collections, no cbor/msts/signatures/cursors. this thing's got it all! give it a go and let me know what you think & if you run into any issues docs.bsky.app/blog/introdu...

Built an orbit simulation tool with only vanilla JS and the Canvas API Try it out: caidan.dev/portfolio/or...

Check out stipple studio if you haven't already

Stipple Studio v1 Today I'm releasing the initial version of my stippling tool. It's still a bit of a work in progress, so let me know if you encounter bugs. Show me what you make with it! caidan.dev/portfolio/st...
