Today we’re introducing Base Code. It’s an early preview of how we think software will be built in the future. It’s a product that encapsulates everything we’ve learnt from: - How our users are building software. - How we’re building internally, scaling to hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue while keeping our engineering team very small and focused. Here are some of the principles behind it, which align with how we at @Base44 think about the future of software engineering: Cloud: - Software will move past local desktop environments (where current tools are widely used) and move to the cloud. - Moving everything to the cloud is not easy. Setting up dev environments with databases, infra components, services, mock data, etc. is easier said than done. - Base Code first scans your code repo and sets up everything - every infra component (databases, Redis, etc.) - in the cloud. It runs nonstop until your preview environment is ready. - From an enterprise standpoint, it’s also the logical thing to do: a centralized, governed dev environment instead of handing out keys and secrets to all team members. - Once Base Code does that, EVERY team member can work in this environment. No more syncing local environments. Internally, this (cloud) is one of the main things that enabled us to move so fast. Collaboration: - Once everything is in the cloud, everybody can write software from anywhere (any browser, your phone, WhatsApp / iMessage coming soon). - You can easily see what everyone is working on, where they’re at, and how they’re prompting - and jump to their environment in one click. - We’ve built many great collaboration features from the ground up. Loops, automations, software factories: - A full, working cloud environment allows for many advanced capabilities we will unveil soon-think agents running in the browser and testing on every device and in any browser. - It also allows the use of automations to build software factories-e.g., agents reading support tickets, identifying bugs to fix or features to develop, implementing the changes, verifying them in the cloud, and potentially pushing them. And lastly, there’s a real advantage in being model agnostic. -------------- As always, we’re releasing it very early. It’s far from perfect-but we’re looking for early feedback so we can build it together with our great community and make this vision a reality. *We’re giving it away for free for 30 days*. Give Base Code a try. Connect any GitHub repo, get your live preview, and share it with your team. I’d love to hear what works and what doesn’t: http://app.base44.com/base-code

"Everything I touch with my keyboard and mouse, I try to delegate to my bots." Here's my new episode with @poteto and @pengzheng_, the eng and design leads for Grok @bot, where they showed me the 14 bots they use for work and life, including: → A design bot that turns one keyframe into a full user flow → An eng lead bot that manages a team of eng bots → How to trust your bots with more of your work Some quotes from both: "I like to call it the Michelin kitchen…when you say software factory, it has this connotation of mass manufactured slop." "Sometimes I actually don't even look at the PR until after it's landed and then I'm like, 'Oh, okay. Yeah, that looks good.'" "I think it ultimately comes back to trust. First, watch your bot work and correct it. Turn what worked into a skill. Once it nails the task in one shot, make it a routine." 📌 Watch now: https://youtu.be/xZ5TEaleUdg Thanks to our sponsors: @meetgranola: AI meeting notes that don’t suck https://granola.ai/peter @RiversidedotFM: All-in-one AI studio for podcasts and video https://creators.riverside.com/PeterYang
