Today’s double coaching calls focused primarily on AI agents and what they’re capable of with new projects. We built a todo app and a dice roller app with #dotnet and #htmx using #copilot and #claude.
We used #vscode as well as #visualstudio
The results were overall impressive!
A dice roller simulator web page running on localhost with inputs for number of dice, dice type (D6, etc), Roll History, Quick Roll Buttons, and Stats. ardalis is logged in.
Coding this as part of my weekly @devbetter.com coaching session. Lots of good feedback from the participants this week. Here's a screenshot of this morning's progress:
More AI stuff in another @devbetter.com session this afternoon.
We continued building out the dice roller. Tried #visualstudio instead of VS Code for a bit, still using GitHub Copilot Chat in Agent mode. Still Claude Sonnet 4. But it was terrible. Kept deleting most of the file it was "fixing"
Steve is talking about one of his @devbetter.com conversations and the question of modeling multi-tenancy.
This thread talks through pros and cons of various options.
Did he miss any options? How are you doing multi-tenancy in Azure?

Had a few good mentoring calls with teams today.
In one they asked, why I would prefer individual use case handlers over coarse grained services. This is something I’ve really leaned into in recent years.
There are many reasons but probably the biggest one is around cross cutting concerns.
Writing tests first... when it makes sense to do so.
❓ Question of the week:
