#316 Neil: Automated Coding Guide To Build Software Features While You Sleep
Automated coding is finally here with the Ralph Wiggum Agent. This guide explains how to treat AI like a junior dev using specific JSON tasks and a unique loop system. Learn to write clear PRDs and run the script to build features overnight. đ
