"I Haven't Written Code in 8 Months. I've Never Built More."
TL;DR: A developer educator discusses how the audience for educational content is shifting toward builders who may not write code, and what that means for how we create and value tooling. The conversation explores building for yourself, the rise of answer engines, and designing with agent-accessibility in mind.
The audience has shifted from traditional developers to builders who want to ship quickly without understanding underlying tech. Building for yourself has become cheaper and more relevant, changing the math of value. The concept of answer engine optimization (AEO) is emerging as a priority for tool teams. Every app should have an MCP server to enable agent access and reduce manual data entry. Two perspectives diverge: one misses coding, the other embraces non-coding workflows.
Question for the room: What non-code, builder-focused educational content or tooling have you found most effective in your work?
