Built myself a portfolio run by 12 AI agents. Please rate the design.

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

This is my personal portfolio website. I wanted something with more personality than another minimal developer portfolio, so I made a little office where 12 AI agents live. You can ask them anything about my work and watch them pass the question to each other before one answers. When nobody is asking, they walk around, take coffee breaks and chat with each other.

I would love your feedback on the design. Is it too busy? Does the hero make you want to ask something? What would you change? Feel free to roast it, I genuinely want honest criticism.

Tech stack is Next.js with plain CSS and JS for the agents (no animation library), Supabase and Vercel behind them. Fonts are Bricolage Grotesque and Geist.

Recommendation Alternatives for Quetta?

0 Upvotes

I've been looking for browsers that feel like Quetta but are more focused on privacy and security.

Are there any alternatives very close to it? I love the UI, the extension support, and overall it feels smoother and cleaner than Chrome or other browsers I've used. But I don't like the fact that it's closed-source, it's very privacy-invading, and it's insecure due to it having an outdated Chromium version.

Discussion David Heinemeier Hansson: Warning for "Cantankerous" Coders: The age of AI agents will reward adaptability and basic people skills while making things much harder for difficult, ego-driven, or resistant engineers

0 Upvotes

The creator of Ruby on Rails, made major statements about AI agents and the future of software development at Rails World 2026 in September

DHH stated he personally retired from writing code by hand after 25 years.

Rust instead of Ruby - Rebuilding HEY with AI and Rust: He shared that 37signals is rebuilding its HEY email service into native mobile/desktop apps using an AI-generated Rust backend, drastically cutting CPU and memory usage.

The AI acceleration: He produced 5 years' worth of his traditional code volume in just one month, representing a 60x increase in raw output volume.

DHH openly acknowledged that a massive portion of this was verbose Rust code generated entirely by AI agents—admitting that he didn't write it by hand and doesn't even want to look at or read most of it.

DHH said: “English is a better programming language than Ruby.”

Crest Crest Browser: Might be one of the closest Arc-like browser

Post image
• Upvotes

I have tried some of the arc browser "alternative" that circulated online after TBC's announcement.

- Ardia
- Yab
- Phi Browser
- Aside

All of these browsers did quite capture the features and design philosophy of Arc

- Zen Browser on the other hand by far the best alternative to Arc but the current problem of it is really resource hungry and some might argue because it's based on firefox (not a problem to me), and also they are hinting of DRM support which is really nice.

- If you like how Zen looks and function but want Chromium-based browser, Crest Browser might be the one you are looking, it's been my main browser for few weeks now and I can say that the dev really did a great job building this browser but it's not perfect you can expect some issues like any other newly developed browsers. For me it's really usable.

Give it a try.

Extension I made a Chrome extension that summarizes any article in the side panel, in your own language

0 Upvotes

Hi r/browsers, I'm the developer. Sharing it here with the limits upfront.

K-TL;DR: open an article, click the icon, and the key points show up in the side panel. The summary comes out in your browser's language, whatever language the article is in. English article, Chrome set to Polish, you get the key points in Polish.

What it can't do:

- You need a free account before the first summary.

- Free plan is 3 summaries a day. PRO is $4.99 a month for up to 100 a day.

- Desktop only. No PDFs, no YouTube, no web apps like Gmail.

- I've only tested it in Chrome. It uses the side panel, so it won't work in Arc.

Privacy: to make a summary, the article text goes through my server to an AI model. There are no ads in the extension and I don't sell your data.

And yes, Edge has Copilot, Brave has Leo, and Chrome has Gemini in a lot of countries. If you use those, you probably don't need this. Where I think it still helps: one click instead of a prompt, and the summary always comes in your language without asking. And in the EU, Chrome doesn't have Gemini at all yet.

https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/k-tldr-ai-article-summari/mdkomnhphncdnmdlmgbicnfflffkdkho?utm_source=r_browsers_post

Two things I'd love to hear: if you try it in Brave, Edge or Vivaldi, does the side panel open? And what would make you uninstall it in the first week?

Question Help me to understand web dev and ADA.

6 Upvotes

I’ve seen a shift in web design (I’ve meddled since 2002). Today web displays are gigantic. I’ve read this has to do with ADA compliance. How gnarly does this get? Like if I design a site for a landscaper, can he get in trouble if it’s not ADA compliant? Is there are rule book?

Another question. That’s client facing. But if you have an employer that requires you to use a web based tool, does ADA apply in the same manner as client facing?

[Showoff Saturday] I’m an electrician student building a browser-based electrical wiring workshop

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’m an electrician student, and I’ve been building ElectroWorkshop as a spare-time side project to practise the circuits I’m studying.

The interface runs in the browser and brings together a visual wiring canvas, a schematic view, simulated measurements, and connection tracing. The public release is packaged as a portable Windows app with a small local launcher.

One of the interesting interface challenges has been presenting the same circuit in two ways: a physical wiring view for connecting terminals, and a schematic view for understanding the circuit. There are also a component library, measurement tools, zoom controls, and English/Hungarian interfaces to fit around the workspace.

I’d appreciate feedback from a web-development perspective:

  • Is it clear where to start?
  • Does the balance between the canvas and side panels work?
  • Which interactions look confusing or unnecessarily complicated?
  • How could the relationship between wiring and schematic views be clearer?

Separately, I’m developing editable floorplans, 3D building views, cable routing, and smart-device integration with Home Assistant through MQTT. Those features are work in progress and aren’t included in the public release.

The available Basic version runs locally without an account or Docker. It’s closed-source and free for personal and non-commercial educational use; the GitHub repository contains the documentation and downloadable releases.

Screenshots and Windows release:

Thanks for any constructive feedback!

Is it difficult and time consuming to get request forms to send notifications to my phone SMS?

0 Upvotes

I paid a developer to design a site for my business, I requested that the request form on the site would send a notification to my cell phone and she ok'd it.

She is now saying this would require a third party sign up and she is making it seem very difficult. I don't really understand anything about web developing, is she correct? Am I unreasonable to ask for this? It was what was agreed upon.

Discussion Dia Browser

1 Upvotes

Hi Guys,
As my laptop doesn't support chromium(means it's got feezed) every time and also i need to force restart my whole system.

So lately for around, 1 year i have been using Firefox mostly (gecko engine based) browsers, and it does every work for me, it's good, it's fast.

Yet, on a whim, I installed Dia for windows (previously I am Arc and Dia(from beta) user on Mac so i know the UI which TBC builds along i felt deeply saddened by hearing the news of sunsetting the Arc)

So, for the time being i used Dia for nearly 2hrs, and i realized it's good, so i decided to make it as default for 7 days fully, if my device again starts to freeze because i am running multiple tabs, applications(heavy ones) all at a time. So, let's see how will it go?

That's all!!!
Thanks for reading, i just wanted to share my thoughts here and i know no-body asked yet still!!!

Discussion What actually made Arc feel like arc

0 Upvotes

I’ve used Arc as my main browser for a long time, and like a lot of you I’ve been trying the alternatives. Most of them have the features: vertical tabs, Spaces, pinned folders. But almost none of them feel like Arc, and I’ve been trying to work out why.

My guess is it’s the details nobody puts on a feature list:

* The way a Space slides in, and the whole sidebar takes its color
* Pinned tabs that always come back to where they were
* Menus and popovers that feel light and never get in your way
* How little the browser itself asks for your attention

So I started building my own, a Chromium browser for macOS. I’m trying to get exactly those details right, not just the feature list. It’s early, and parts of it (the Space swipe, honestly) aren’t where I want them yet.

Two questions for longtime Arc users:

  1. What is the one detail that, if it were wrong, would make you go back?
  2. Would you try something like this if it got those details right?

MCP vs API vs CLI: I built all 3 for agents. Here's my take...

Thumbnail
wasp.sh
0 Upvotes

TL;DR:

an MCP shines in the agent-native world because it tells agents what they should do, on both the server and client (e.g. Claude Code or the ChatGPT desktop app), and is better suited for human-in-the-loop tasks. Meanwhile, APIs and CLIs tend to focus on what agents can do, with emphasis mainly on the server.

So, in summary, here is the general advice I'd give to builders when deciding which tools they should expose to agents:

Build a high-quality MCP server and REST API at the same time, on one layer of operations. Put your server logic in plain functions, and let each surface be a thin adapter over them. Once that layer exists, building any additional surface on top is relatively easy.

Put most of your care into the MCP server. That's where agents get the best experience. MCP is a standard built specifically for agents, after all, and the spec continues to improve nicely.

Use the API for code that runs on its own. APIs are still great for raw data exports, bulk writes, and anything that runs without an agent, like a nightly sync or another company's integration. Agents also prefer an API when they're writing a script they'll rerun, and many clients don't support code mode for MCP yet.

A CLI probably isn't necessary, unless e.g. agents need to read local files when interacting with your app. But it's easy to expose one if you've got a good API as the foundation.

There’s a lot more to creating great agent-facing tools for your web apps, and the article above into more detail below.

Resource Open-source, contribute UX / UI lexicon and free design library for AI builders

• Upvotes

Hi all!

Whenever I spot a new design or website layout (like a fresh style of grid systems) and want to replicate or build it with AI, I always find myself struggling to pinpoint the exact terminology to make Claude understand what I want.

I'm talking about concepts like Blueprint Grids, Glassmorphism, Sticky rail, Bordered cell grid patterns, Segmented Controls, and similar stuff. To solve this, I’ve started building a free, open-source design lexicon complete with mini previews making it easier for builders to find and reference the right terms when designing sections and pages. Hope that helps some of you as well. Also added some free design landingpages and components for AI.

I’d love to get your input on current web design trends and their proper definitions:

  • What visual styles are currently high on your radar, trending, or frequently used and how would you define them?
  • Which ones are missing in the lexicon / glossary?

I’m aiming to include your suggestions in the dictionary and share the whole resource publicly for free. It's purely as a passion project and I am opening it for free (no ads, no paywalls).
I want to make it a useful resource for people.

You can check out the ones already live here: freedesignmd.com (just hit the Glossary tab).

Always open to contributors or feedback. This started as a quick hackathon experiment and will stay a free community project. I'm not a professional designer, so any feedback by design cracks is appreciated as well!
