For the last couple months something's been in the works and I couldn't be any more excited to finally announce it! The Weekly Dev's Brew Podcast goes Live June 9th!

New podcast episode with co-founder of Sentry David Cramer is live www.wordman.dev/podcast/davi...

The latest episode of the Weekly Dev's Brew seems to resonate with lots of folks. I got Mario Zechner (creator of Pi) properly grumpy about AI coding: why code is never free, why spec-driven dev is just waterfall again, and how he survives 50+ AI PRs a day. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhjU...

My @sli.dev plugin for @jetbrains.com IDEs is live (alpha). Auto-detects your slides.md, manages the dev server, completion in the editor, live preview, navigation to imported slides, syntax highlight for magic-move, quick docs for front matter... plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/32201...

Going live in just a bit with Jason Torres to walk through what's new in WebStorm 2026.1. We're covering updates across TypeScript, Angular, Vue, Svelte, and Astro, plus some of the recent JetBrains AI improvements. 3PM CET, come hang out and ask questions! www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyWK...

Ok, I'm in: if you build a plugin for JetBrains IDEs, I can review your Gradle build script. I'll verify if caching works, introduce all those good practices, and even migrate it out of Groovy. Drop me your GitHub repo, and I'll pick it up next week on the live stream! On me!

JetBrains launches Junie, an "agentic AI" assistant built into its IDEs, promising more autonomous coding and hinting at the future of development workflows. #ai

For WebStorm 2026.1 we want to hear what matters to you. Vote for issues or feature requests and we will do our very best to get those into the 2026.1 release!

I've been using GoLand and Junie, JetBrains AI coding assistant. GoLand's Productivity Guide shows that I haven't really been using the features of my IDE at all! I think in a real-world project I'd be using a combination of Junie for the boring stuff and hand coding the interesting pieces.
