If you're not worried about showing off little hints of your own codebase, record running it on one of your day to day engineering tasks. It's perfect dog fooding and would be a fun meta example.

Record this!
Better yet, stream it on Twitch and/or YouTube and/or Discord and build a small community of followers.
People would love to watch you.

Great idea! We were kicking around something like this, but couldn't get it ready in time for today's launch – but keep your eyes peeled! Our Discord community is a great place to stay up to date.
Yup, I had the same thought. I just ran into an issue during today's launch and used Codebuff to help me resolve it: https://www.tella.tv/video/solving-website-slowdown-with-ai-.... Next time, I'll try to record before I start working, but it's hard to rememeber sometimes.
Hopefully the demo on our homepage shows a little bit more of your day-to-day workflows than other codegen tools show, but we're all ears on ways to improve this!
To give a concrete example of usefulness, I was implementing a referrals feature in Drizzle a few weeks ago, and Codebuff was able to build out the cli app, frontend, backend, and set up db schema (under my supervision, of course!) because of its deep understanding of our codebase. Building the feature properly requires knowing how our systems intersect with one another and the right abstraction at each point. I was able to bounce back and forth with it to build this out. It felt akin to working with a great junior engineer, tbh!
