The RAG Reality Check: From Vibe-Coding to Production

We’ve all seen the dopamine hit of the "magic" AI demo. In the current landscape, it has never been easier to build a system that feels like the future in thirty minutes. We have officially entered the era of vibe-coding—the practice of using AI-assisted, rapid prototyping to assemble compelling applications that secure client buy-in and validate use cases.This is particularly true for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems. RAG is the essential process of grounding Large Language Models (LLMs) in data they...

The Thin Line Between AI-Assisted Development and Vibe-Coding

I still fondly remember my first-hand experiences of using GitHub Copilot and Cursor. When I used GitHub Copilot for the first time (around 2023), I was a college student in my third year. It was an evening time, sitting alone in the HoD room, working on a project. I had applied for GitHub Education Pack and got access to GitHub Copilot through JetBrains Rider. It was those early days when Copilot was just autocompletions with specially-trained LLM called "Codex" and...

MCP and Doc-Monitor Transform External Services Integration

(AI-generated image)In today's interconnected world, integrating with a vast ecosystem of SaaS providers presents a significant challenge. It is not just about understanding and creating OpenAPI REST clients for numerous APIs, but also mapping them to our internal domain model. The real hurdle lies in the continuous maintenance of both the client and the mapping code as these third-party SaaS APIs evolve.Imagine we're building a neobank in the UK. A key feature of our app is providing users with a...
