Chapter 1 : Overview

AI Assisted Development​

!# See Caution

AI Assisted Development is used to enhance developer productivity by leveraging AI to assist with tasks like code generation and completion.

What is AI Assisted Development​

AI Assisted Development involves using AI to assist in coding, via Editors, Tools, LLMs and MCP Servers.

Key characteristics​

  • Human Oversight: A developer remains in control, iterating to get best results, and reviewing AI-generated code outputs.
  • AI as a Partner: Treat AI coding assistants as a collaborative "pair programmer" rather than a replacement for human.
  • Boost developer productivity: The goal is to boost developer productivity, efficiency, and code quality.

AI-Assisted Development Vs Vibe Coding​

In AI-Assisted Development, tools support and enhance human developers rather than autonomously taking over the entire coding as seen in Vibe Coding.

Dual Purpose Use​

Use AI Assisted Development with and for EasyManage:

  • With EasyManage: Improve AI Assisted Development Outcomes in any projects.
  • For EasyManage: Leverage AI for Low-Code and Deeper Customizations of EasyManage No-Code code exports.

!# Caution​

Caution on AI​

caution
  • AI responses may include mistakes.
  • Using AI generated code can be risky due to potential security vulnerabilities and quality concerns.
  • Relying solely on AI without human oversight can lead to issues.
