• Collaboration Circles for Developers (2026)
  1 project | dev.to | 11 Nov 2025

  Exercism is a code practice + mentoring platform in 74 languages. Why it can work: although it is not exclusively focused on groups of five, its mentoring and peer review model allows forming mini-circles where participants give each other mutual feedback. Limitation: it is not originally intended as a "venting circle" (My favorite), but more technical-practical.

• Build Code-RAGent, an agent for your codebase
  8 projects | dev.to | 29 Apr 2025

  The only thing left to do then was to build something that could showcase the power of code ingestion within a vector database, and it immediately clicked in my mind: "Why don't I ingest my entire codebase of solved Go exercises from Exercism?" That's how I created Code-RAGent, your friendly coding assistant based on your personal codebases and grounded in web search. It is built on top of GPT-4.1, powered by OpenAI, LinkUp, LlamaIndex, Qdrant, FastAPI and Streamlit. The building of this project was aimed at providing a reproducible and adaptable agent, that people can therefore customize based on their needs, and it was composed of three phases:

• I Finished The Odin Project's Foundation Track
  3 projects | dev.to | 18 Feb 2025

  This is where sources like freeCodeCamp or Scrimba absolutely shine. With Odin, you read an article and may follow along with examples. But it’s unlikely you develop the muscle memory to implement the concepts on your own. Odin does offer some in-house exercises and often assigns external ones too. Still, I believe it’s not enough. You don’t lift weight only 5 times and say I’ve got this! You keep lifting until that muscle grows and continue lifting to keep it in shape. Similarly, you need to grow your mental muscles (brain neurons?) by doing many, many exercises. So you might want to augment your learning with other sources like Exercism or fCC.
