Creating a Resume Builder with Node, Mustache, and JSON

As a developer, I'm always looking for ways to streamline my workflow. Recently, I stumbled upon an interesting challenge: creating a resume template generator using Node.js and Mustache.

Here's how it unfolded:

1. I found a resume design I liked online and saved it as a JPG.

2. I prompted an AI (Claude 3.5 Sonnet) to create a Node.js and Mustache-based template process, with JSON input and HTML output.

create me a template process, that uses node and mustache. The input will be JSON for the resume details. The Node app will be run CLI and output will be html. 

3. Surprisingly, it worked on the first try! The AI provided a complete solution, including code snippets and step-by-step instructions.

4. When I noticed the template didn't quite match my reference image, I simply informed the AI.

The app runs. However, the template is incomplete and does not match the picture that I uploaded.

5. Without missing a beat, it adjusted the code to match the desired layout perfectly.

The ease and accuracy of this process amazed me. While other AI tools might require multiple adjustments, this one nailed it with minimal guidance.

This experience highlights the rapid advancements in AI-assisted coding. It's becoming an invaluable tool for developers, enabling us to prototype and iterate faster than ever before.

As AI continues to evolve, I'm excited to explore more ways it can enhance our development processes. Have you had any surprising AI-assisted coding experiences? Share your thoughts below!

Is Coding Becoming Obsolete? Discover the Surprising Rise of the READ-ONLY Developer!

The Evolution of the 'Copy-Paste Developer': Is the 'Read-Only Developer' the Future? Food for Thought as Time Will Tell.

This week has been a revelation in many ways. I developed an AI chatbot that sparked conversations loaded with humor and integrated DuckDB into our process flow for enhanced data analytics. Moreover, I contributed to building two new websites, albeit with AI taking the lead by handling 90% of the work.

What did I do this week?

• Coded an AI chatbot

• Integrated DuckDB into a process flow for analytics

• Created two functional websites

• Generated federated business rules on IPFS

• Used AI-generated code for blockchain transactions

• Experienced an existential crisis

Existential crisis, or Evolution?

What have I discovered through these experiences? Beyond tweaking a few variables and making integration fixes, I find myself transitioning into a "READ-ONLY" Developer. Is this an existential crisis? Perhaps, but it's also a reflection of our changing roles in the tech landscape.

Overall Discovery: Your skills as a developer remain a priceless asset, though they may be converging towards that of a READ-ONLY, detail-oriented developer. Only time will tell.

A Glimpse into the READ-ONLY Coder

The READ-ONLY developer is not your traditional developer. We do not write new codes; our specialty lies in dissecting, understanding, and optimizing existing codebases. Our expertise is crucial for identifying inefficiencies, security flaws, and potential improvements, making us indispensable in an era where the complexity of software applications is staggering.

Why the READ-ONLY Developer?

The demand for READ-ONLY developer is rising as modern software systems, like those powering global financial markets or streaming services, have become too large and intricate for frequent rewrites. Instead, maintaining and optimizing these colossal systems is a full-time job—perfectly suited for READ-ONLY developers.

Skills and Tools

As seasoned programmers, READ-ONLY developers are well-versed in software architecture, performance metrics, and security protocols. We use advanced tools for static code analysis, debugging, and software composition analysis, enabling us to efficiently dissect and optimize code.

Impact and Opportunities

This specialization within the tech industry not only optimizes development cycles but also enhances the security and efficiency of software applications. For businesses, this means significant cost savings and reduced risk. For developers, it offers a unique niche that prioritizes analytical prowess over traditional programming.

Looking Forward

The role of the READ-ONLY developer is becoming increasingly crucial as we continue to tackle the challenges of modern software maintenance. This role not only addresses immediate practical needs but also underscores the evolving nature of tech jobs, emphasizing the importance of understanding and improving existing systems.

In an era of rapid digital innovation, the READ-ONLY developer represents a new kind of digital craftsmanship. It's an exciting time to explore this new frontier, blending the old with the new in our journey through the ever-changing landscape of technology.

Maybe just a Quack! The future will tell all! 

Ready to RAG? It's Business Rule Generation like You've Never Seen!

Business Rules Are Like...

 Business Rules are like the secret commandments of your company. They're the "Thou Shalt Nots" and "Heck Yeah, Go Fors" that lay down the law on how stuff gets done. No guessing games, just crystal-clear instructions keeping everything from turning into a free-for-all. Business Rules are the big boss telling you the dos and don'ts, whether it’s approving a refund or deciding who gets a first class upgrade. They’re the backbone that keeps your business from turning into a spaghetti mess!

Now, ready for some game-time strategy? Enter the Decision Table - your business’s secret playbook. It's like a cheat sheet that shows every possible move in the game of decision-making. Columns of conditions, rows of actions—it's all about if-this-then-that without the brain ache. Imagine a grid that’s got your back, helping you dodge decision disasters and score big wins. No more "uhhhs" or "umms"; just sleek, sharp choices and victory dances. Boo-yah!

The Prompt Used to Write Code - That's it Folks!

Based on table-01, please use the instruction bullets in javascript-01 to create the function, include an example usage with sample inputs.

Generated Code

const AJV = require('ajv');
const ajv = new AJV({ allErrors: true });

// Schema definition
const eligibilitySchema = {
  type: "object",
  properties: {
    age: { type: "number" },
    status: { type: "string", enum: ["complete"] },
    membership: { type: "string", enum: ["yes", "no"] }
  },
  required: ["age", "status", "membership"],
  additionalProperties: false
};

function eligible(input) {
  // Inline comment with version
  // eligible:v0.0.1
  
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    try {
      // Schema validation
      if (!ajv.validate(eligibilitySchema, input)) {
        throw new Error(ajv.errorsText());
      }

      // Decision logic using switch statement
      let decision;
      switch (true) {
        case (input.age >= 30 && input.status === "complete" && input.membership === "yes"):
          decision = 'Eligible-A';
          break;
        case (input.age < 30 && input.status === "complete" && input.membership === "yes"):
