"The AI keeps summarizing instead of giving raw code. Let me get it differently." Better have a good, good luck in the mirror before you make statements like that 😂.

126 people downloaded Seaquel... YESTERDAY! Not this month, not to date, but yesterday 🤯. A new release is in progress. Two new features and thousands of lines of AI code removed. I used AI to clean up AI generated code. Now it's how I would write it so it's maintainable for me and contributors.

I'm allergic to warnings and errors in logs because of the broken windows theory. Luckily, I went from thousands of errors to dozens with minimal effort. All it takes it actually looking at the errors and address them 😅. On that note: warnings are errors and must fail CI (IMHO, hot take, etc.)

I often get asked why I left Switzerland... The older I get, the less I know why 😅. The photo is what Switzerland looks like on a sunny day. Locals consider this "normal".

When your dog vibe codes games, we probably reached peak hype. I started my blog post where I share my experience vibe coding seaquel.app for the last three months. I'm genuinely excited to start conversations based on my experience, especially with people who vibe code for life.

What you need to know is `--migrate prettier`!

Does anyone else start to get annoyed by AI hallucinations? Slowly but surely, I think there are no actual long-term benefits in letting AI write code. Dopamine hit? HUGE. Benefits 6+ months later? Questionable.

Mainly for myself to feel good about the time I invest in Seaquel, I built a /metrics page. Where possible, numbers are broken down by release. Click on cards with a 📈 icon to see details. seaquel.app/metrics

New in Svelte: Comments inside component/element tags!

New LayerChart docs 🎉 next.layerchart.com Massive overhaul including over 700 isolated examples with browsing / cross referencing / StackBlitz editing, AI friendly (llms.txt), component API docs, guides, improved search, showcase, improved design, and more! Details👇

Is starlight.astro.build by @astro.build still the best way to get incredible docs with the least amount of effort? It served me very well a few years ago & I have a feeling if anything, it has become even better, right? Ok, going to figure out how to run this at /docs next to my @svelte.dev site.

"continvoucly morged" They get the publicity they don't deserve for this and anyone who dismisses it as a "one off mistake" should read the room. AI is a fantastic time saver, but unless you use it for very small, very specific tasks, it's arguably one of the worst inventions.

That's been in the works for a bit, so I'm extra excited to finally have it available, in the browser no less! Please check the visual query builder, I really hope this helps at least one person understand SQL better.

Spending today's public holiday reviewing two months worth of vibe-coded code... I have opinions now, experience-based opinions. I'll expand in a blog post, but tl;dr is vibe coding isn't sustainable. It gets you from zero to way ahead of competitors in no time, but is it worth the cost?

OMG 😭 2 people have opened 8 issues 2-3 weeks ago and I only noticed it now 😲. Thank you, I will address the open issues asap! I'm now subscribed to all activity on the repo 😅.

Does anyone have a Windows machine to test the newly signed Seaquel binary? You should be able to install and start Seaquel without security warnings. I'm traveling and don't have access to my Windows VM. github.com/webstonehq/s...

First half of the day, full body health check. Second half: • Microsoft approved my business, so I can now sign Seaquel binaries for Windows • Implemented commercial licenses Finally, back to regular feature development. Expect the current beta to be promoted to the latest release this weekend!

svelte-check just got much faster We've added --incremental and --tsgo as new options to speed up Svelte type checking

"Anthropic raises $30 billion in Series G funding at $380 billion post-money valuation" What is the value of money anyway 😂?! Also, who's the first to raise a series AA? In any case, the $100 I give Anthropic a month is well worth it for me.

The world: "Let's depend on US technologies." China: "You go ahead, all the best."

First time I have to use the @drizzle.team ORM and I have no idea why a new table with 5 columns creates a meta JSON file with 3,455 lines. @prisma.io certainly has its fair share of problems too, but not quite 3,455 lines of code bad 😂. Makes me miss @remult.dev... that's the way to go in 2026.

New skill unlocked: Use AI to generate mermaid diagrams. No more excuse not to visualize your workflows.

It's not Halloween yet, but here's how you can scare a developer any time in 2026. "Let me rewrite everything."

My buddy Alfred, the AI bot I develop for a client, now creates its own database branch on Neon for each feature it works on. It creates the branch off the production branch, anonymizes PII data and off it goes. Any human that reviews the code automatically uses the same database branch as Alfred!

`man cp` You know you're about to learn something that makes you feel dumb when you open the `cp` man page... So for anyone else who has ever written this: [ ! -f .env ] && cp .env.example .env Try this instead: cp -n .env.example .env You're welcome 😅 (check your `man cp` for compatibility)

This reminds me that even after decades of few people writing end-to-end tests, we still don't have a way to make them reliable. @playwright.dev was my hope, but recently the vibe I got has been "we tried, but we're winding down". Is www.jetify.com going to solve it??

Alfred, my AI bot I develop for a client, spins up ephemeral dev sandboxes with sprites.dev to get his work done. Then, mise.jdx.dev sets up the sandboxes with all needed tools and fnox.jdx.dev provides secrets from 1Password. Alfred then works and opens PRs. Thank you, @jdx.dev 🙏!

TIL about moonrepo.dev/moon. As I scrolled and scanned the landing page, I kept thinking "why not use mise.jdx.dev instead 🤔?" Then I reached the footer and saw "Backed by Y Combinator" and my muscle memory kicked in... Cmd+W.

An impossible situation occurred. That really makes you rethink the meaning of impossible 😅.

Somebody, at least one of you, go watch that Melania movie please 🙏.

If you have a Node.js CLI, use Clack. It's the one thing I miss since I started building CLIs with Rust. Clack is beautiful, user-friendly and you get the most maintainable code I've seen when it comes to Node.js CLIs.

I'm building SHIP (Smart Headless Implementation Pipeline) for a team of ~15. • Open Linear ticket • Tag SHIP • Wait (SHIP develops what's in the ticket) • Review PR Has anyone done that? I know Cursor has something similar, but I'm interested in in-house solutions anyone worked on 🙏.

A really neat side effect of seaquel.app is that the dark/light mode syncs between the website and the live demo 💡! Change it on the website and the app updates and vice versa. The beauty of @svelte.dev for the website and native app.

Alright, why not release a beta version to prod?! The new SQL tutorial and the visual query builder are now live at seaquel.app! Click the 🎓 hat in the left sidebar to get started. To toggle the sidebar and get more space: Cmd+B

Do you use DBeaver? Want to try seaquel.app? I've got you covered 🤝

✅ Subqueries nested any level deep ✅ Common Table Expressions (CTEs) ✅ Tutorial with 11 lessons, 54 challenges While I was at it, the visual query builder can now be used with your own database schema too! Slowly but surely this is the SQL tool I've always wanted.

Tonight's project: SQL tutorials in Seaquel 🧑‍🎓 Visually create queries or write in the editor (with two-way sync) to better learn how SQL works. For companies: Use my tutorial or create your own for team members to complete based on your needs. Soon available at seaquel.app!

I want to try @tangled.org but why does it require all these Bluesky permissions? A git hosting platform does not need access to my posts, likes, follows and most certainly not private preferences. Disappointed 😔

seaquel.app Windows binaries now available in Beta (.exe and .msi). I'm going through the process of signing the binaries, but if you want to give it a go and don't mind the security warning, check the latest beta release at github.com/webstonehq/s....

Genius! This is the kind of low friction, excellent developer experience I like. developers.cloudflare.com/changelog/20...

#$MIKE available as a crypto coin TODAY! Buy now, tell your friends, sell tomorrow. I can't anymore, a React JS framework got pulled in too. When Rich claims $SVELTE, I'll buy and you should too. All joking aside, what's happening?!?!

Do you use a SQL client? Do you share queries with your team via Slack 😱? I'd like to talk to you 😊. seaquel.app soon™ supports shared queries, with built in git support. Last week's query parameters come in handy now! Provide variables and let others enter values that matter to them.

In seaquel.app, you can now visualize your EXPLAIN ANALYZE queries. It also highlights the hot path, shows you row estimation errors, critical bottlenecks, and slow nodes. I also kicked off three AI agents for the night: 1) Audit trail 2) Time-Travel Query Comparison 3) Shared queries

Oh no, all I do is enjoy a day in the mountains and when I come back, crypto scam infiltrated AI 😂. As if crypto on its own wasn't enough of a fraudulent industry, now they come after the other thing everyone talks about. Funny how quickly people shoot themselves in the foot when they see $.

Hey at least LLMs are honest 😂. A superpower I've always had that is still relevant to this day is reading the docs. Turns out I'm going to keep that habit.

I'm exploring a more visual user experience compared to the traditional query editor -> results table. I don't know yet if I'll keep it, but it crossed my mind so I told an agent to build it. If I keep it, the plan is to make it a multi-player canvas (Figma-style).

Parameterized queries, a prerequisite for shared team queries. This too was built while I did house chores, in parallel to bsky.app/profile/moot.... Now that effort isn't a limiting factor anymore, we get to add features that add real value for people and their workflows.

For now, Seaquel detects existing DBeaver connections and suggests to auto-import them. Built by AI while I washed dishes 🧽.

Do you want to try Seaquel? seaquel.app -> The demo runs in the browser! How? • Adapter pattern for either a @tauri.app Rust or Javascript backend • @svelte.dev frontend (pick the right backend adapter, done) • @duckdb.org wasm in the browser

EDD - Error-Driven Development If you perform EDD with your AI agents, you're doing better than anyone who doesn't use AI agents yet. I honestly can't believe I'm talking like that, but I'm now 3 weeks into letting AI write my code for seaquel.app and it's truly impressive.
