We're going places 🌎
This Weekly Crumbs is packed with resources, videos... and a secret!
Hey friends,
Frontend AI v2.9.4 feature several great improvements: from enhanced dark mode contrast for your components 🌑, to keyboard shortcuts ⚡, navigating the message history with up and down keys, just like the terminal, and others 🔄. Check it out here and let us know what you think? There’s a channel in our Discord for that #🤖frontendai-feedback and we love hearing from you.
Oh… Can you keep a secret? 🤫 We’ve applied to the Y Combinator special fall batch! This would be a game changer for us. Fingers crossed! 🤞
Talking about Webcrumbs
Nice people around the world keep noticing us:
In the 🌎 US, we appeared on Hacker News, and it was a blast! Our m4rcxs' post sparked a lively discussion on AI's impact on software development. Many users found value in our tool, and we're taking note of all the suggestions for improvement. So happy with the engagement.
Our friends from 🌎 South Korea featured us on the cover of IT These Days (요즘IT), together with a detailed demo of our Frontend AI. They say: “I also used it and found that it can be used sufficiently in collaboration between designers and developers. I think it is an attractive service because you can quickly create and check the necessary components in various ways.“
Prefer video? People are making those too!
In 🌎 Brazil, Will found out about us by chance and made a video showing up how Frontend AI makes frontend work way faster. He’s spot on—no devs are getting replaced; we're just cranking out code! Devs are the stars for us.
In 🌎 Saudi Arabia, تكنولجم demonstrate how to generate a login page with Frontend AI with options to sign in with Google and Apple.
In the 🌎 UK, Marty Englander made an exciting short video about Frontend AI saying it’s unbelievable, among other things.
By AI e about AI, this YouTube video has such a nice description of Frontend AI that we should learn ourselves. If you like AI Generated news, here’s another.
No dollars were spent. These are just nice people around the world finding Frontend AI and sharing it with their friends and followers. 🧡
