Can someone please just tell me what model and workflow is so productive? I've seen so many allusions to the concept of skills for LLM use but no explanations of what they are.
- simonw 2y agoThe best LLM for code right now, in my opinion, is still Claude 3.5 Sonnet. The big challenge is figuring out how to use it. I usually like working at the function level: I figure out the exact function signature I want in Python or JavaScript and then get Claude to implement it for me. Claude Artifacts are neat too: Claude can build a full HTML+JavaScript UI, and then iterate on it. I use this for interactive UI prototypes and building small tools. I've published a whole lot of notes on this stuff here: https://simonwillison.net/tags/ai-assisted-programming/ https://simonwillison.net/tags/ai-assisted-programming/
