THE LAST FRONTEND DEVELOPER

About

The last frontend developer

The story of a frontend developer trying to redefine the job in the AI era.

For years we worked at becoming better developers. We learned to write cleaner code, picked up new frameworks, cared about performance and accessibility. Then one day we sat down at the computer and realised we no longer had to write most of the code ourselves.

So what happens now?

The Last Frontend Developer is a channel chasing that question. It tries to understand where the profession is heading not by preaching from the sidelines, but from behind the desk and inside real work.

I'm not waiting to see whether AI replaces me. I'm finding out what I can do with it before it does.

Who's talking here

There's no teacher here. No lessons, no "learn this, drop that". Three people share this desk:

  • The developer who experiments. Tries a new tool on a real project and shows what worked, where it hit a wall and what was learned: the process, not just the result.
  • The observer reading the future. Draws conclusions about how the developer's role changes as AI gets better, and keeps predictions apart from facts.
  • The maker shipping real products. Apps, automations, games, AI tools. You don't just hear about them; you see what gets built.

Series

The Last Dev Log. Personal thoughts and the future. Questions like "What do we do while AI writes the code?" or "Would I still learn frontend this way if I started today?"

Building in Public. Taking a product from idea to launch: architecture decisions, where AI saves the day and where it falls flat, and the problems along the way.

The New Developer Stack. Claude Code, Codex, MCP, agent systems. How software actually gets built in the AI era.

Two truths

Agents now write code, open pull requests and work through the night. Trusting the code they produce is still hard. This channel sits right between the two, talking about both the shift and the trust problem through real work.

One rule

Everything here either happened or was run as an experiment. Nothing that didn't happen is sold as if it did. If something is still a possibility, it's called a possibility.
