Interesting stuff i found - April 2025
FastEndpoints
I have been looking into ways to organize ASP.NET Minimal APIs, FastEndpoints offer another approach. Seems to suffer from the “one primary contributor” issue of most open-source .NET projects, which leaves you with high risk when adopting it.
Design Token-Based UI Architecture
I mostly work in the backend, but I find this article on how to manage design abstractions and changes across technologies fascinating.

Mapping the Mind of a Large Language Model
Really interesting look into how the internals of a LLM work. While they are sometimes derided as “next token predictors” (which they are), maybe so are we in a sense, given that the internal state is continually evolving with input. That being said, I do not think we are on the verge of AGI, that seems like hype cycle hyperbole (remember Blockchain?) from people who like to pocket billions on vague promises.

Le Chat
European LLM chatbot alternative, haven’t used it much yet but nice to see European tech companies in the mix
The AI Engineer Roadmap
Not sure that I buy that “AI engineer” is fundamentally different from tradtional software engineering (not mentioning “Vibe coding”), but there are some interesting ideas on how to handle the inherent non-deterministic nature of LLMs, when embedding them as part of a software solution. Also I like the razor focus on being a LLM user, which is what most developers are going to be.
