I tried out Kiro last week on quite a gnarly date time parsing problem. I had started with a two hundred-ish word prompt and a few bits of code examples for context to describe the problem. Similar to OP it forced me to stop and think more clearly about the problem I was trying to solve and in the end left my jaw on the floor as I saw it work through the task list. I think only early bit of feedback I had was in that my tasks were also writing a lot of tests, and if the feedback loop to getting test results was neater this would be insanely powerful. Something like a sandboxed terminal, I am less keen on a YOLO mode and had to keep authorising the terminal to run. | ||||||||||||||

This sort of comment always fascinates me. Having a machine do the last leaps for you is a time saver I guess, but I often wonder whether the real thing people are discovering again is that sitting down and really thinking about the problem you're trying to solve before writing some code results in better solutions when you get to it. | ||||||||||||||
