Something I never thought I’d see: an open source project saying they have too many contributors and contributions.
With AI, I sometimes feel like I can fly when I code. I can also understand how people who aren’t developers might feel something similar. If you know how to interact properly with tools like Claude, you can bootstrap a project very quickly.
But understanding the code is a completely different story.
Producing software is not just about generating code. It’s about security, upgrade paths, architecture, coding guidelines, long-term maintainability, consistency, testing, documentation… and much more.
Code is only one part of the equation.
