Author here. Ran this against 591 listings from agentic-engineering-jobs.com (a board I run). The bit that surprised me most: LangChain-specific roles pay $60-70k less than framework-agnostic ones, despite LangChain being 2x the next framework by mentions.

Happy to answer methodology questions or share the raw cuts.

Working on https://katelabs.ai/ trying to make high-quality UI testing effortless for small developer teams that don’t have QA departments. If someone’s interested in a solution, please hit me up, I want to learn from your current painpoints!

Good points, I guess what you're saying is to build a small momentum and just keep it going (without overdoing it)?

See the answer above, I just posted a reply which may give more context.

As for what the webhook contains: - Some standard metadata about the session (location, host, referrer etc.) - Any user property (email, userId etc.) that you can add at that specific point in time in your app

Does that make sense?

So here's what I was thinking: - It's a web-plattform where you can put in your website url - Then you can simply open your website (in production) and you will see a toolbar floating on top of your website - You can use this toolbar to select HTML Elements on your own website (similar to how the select cursor in chrome dev tools works) - By selecting elements you can create "User Actions", which simply is a sequence of clicks in order on specific elements on your website - Now, after saving, every time a user on your website does those specific "User Actions", you will receive a webhook to your system - You could pass any user properties you wish on to that webhook call - You can use the webhook call for whatever you wish (triggering emails, analytics, support, etc.)

Does that make any sense?

Finding time for side projects as a fulltime dev

How do you manage your time building side-projects while working as a full time dev? For the past months I’ve been working for 3 hours prior to my regular job and 3 hours after. But honestly, it’s such a stress for mind and body. Any tips?

Visual Website Click to Webhook Builder

I'm building a super easy, cheap and lightweight tool that lets you open your Website / App and visually click on Elements to define User Actions. These, in turn, trigger Webhooks that you can use for whatever.Would anyone be interested in such a tool (specifically solopreneurs, mini SaaS's etc.?)
