Welcome to nedshed.dev

A virtual and literal workshed where we stress-test the new wave of AI coding tools on real software — from million-line Java dinosaurs creaking under corporate load to green-field side projects spun up over a weekend.

• Gear tests No-fluff reviews of AI pair-programmers, code search, refactoring assistants, and dev-infra. Benchmarked on nasty legacy modules and fresh repos so you see where the hype holds up.

• Case studies I don’t know what “big model smell” means. I do know if a specific deliverable was achieved, and how much the tool helped.

• Stream Recaps Too busy to catch the full live session on YouTube? Get the distilled highlights, key commands, gotchas, and the final diff in one e-mail.

Pull up a stool, fire up the terminal, and let’s see what these AI assistants are really made of.
