I'm pretty good at getting LLMs to write well-tested, production-ready code. I think it's a matter of knowing the right tools and techniques to use and steering the project in the right direction. Type-checking, linting, and a solid test suite go a very long way. It would be a nightmare to work on any project without these.

It could be interesting to take on a consulting project. I haven't done any contract work for many years but I'm curious to see if I could provide some value. Let me know if you need help with making a project more maintainable: refactoring, linters, writing tests, setting up CI/CD pipelines, etc.



Agreed, seeing similar good results with those guardrails. Also seeing good results when you actually spend energy and think through the high-level architecture (and document it). Makes it a lot easier for the LLM to snap into place and pattern match.
