10 years ago, I started as a developer. And somewhere around 5 years ago, I switched to UX and Product Design. Since then, I have rarely touched code. But while working on my new app, I decided to build it myself, to go back to writing code. And honestly… it surprised me how much I enjoyed it again. “Writing code” isn’t really the same anymore. With AI agents, the process feels smoother, more creative... almost fun 😅 . It reminded me of the feeling I had when I first started as a developer. Of course, my background helps, knowing how to structure components, think in logic, and build systems. But with AI, everything feels faster, simpler, and a lot more intuitive. Even when the output isn’t perfect, I realised… I still got it 🤓

@Daniel Vinersar this is such a relatable feeling, was there a particular reason behind the switch though.?

@Olayinka D. Adeyefa I was always inclined toward more than just coding, I wanted to be more involved in the project processes, decisions and user experience. And from there the switch came naturally.
