Is it time for a new leap in AI-assisted development? In this Dev-Life-Log, I'm taking a first look at *Leap.new**, a full-stack AI coding assistant that claims to work *with you, not instead of you, and even deploys to AWS or GCP! Could this be the new v0 killer?
Watch as I put Leap.new to the test by attempting to replicate my existing gamified Kanban board project. This episode covers:
► My initial impressions and a walkthrough of the Leap.new interface (Code, Preview, Architecture, Infrastructure).
► The process of prompting the AI to build the application and the (sometimes surprising) results.
► Live debugging as I encounter and try to resolve errors, including Clerk authentication and API call issues.
► Successfully getting a basic dashboard and Kanban board interface up and running.
► A look at the gamified UI elements Leap.new generated and some minor UI bug encounters.
► My thoughts on its potential for end-to-end development and the (slightly confusing) token/credit system.
Join me as I explore whether Leap.new lives up to the hype and if it's truly "Making the Leap" in AI coding assistance!
