  1. Anyone got any experience using Google Gemini? I asked it to develop a web app that could then be compiled as a WP plugin. But I ran into difficulties because it used REACT, which I don’t have any experience with. I’m not a coder or developer!

    1. Hey Brian! I’m glad you swung by. I’m planning to write a follow-up to this. Everything with AI changes so quickly that this article already feels pretty quaint.

      For your situation, I think your best bet is going to be leaning on something like loveable.dev or bolt.new. Those are both designed to give non-devs a more fully-functioning end result. But so far, in my opinion, they still are not as good as we’d like them to be for that use-case. Having a working knowledge of common dev practices I think is still pretty necessary in order to actually ship something functional.

      Good luck though, I’d love to hear more about your journey. Feel free to reach out via my contact form: https://www.mattcromwell.com/ask-matt/

  2. Hi, Matt. Do you know any tool as Bolt.new able to create WP plugins? Bolt only develops standalone React based softwares.

    1. I’ve been experimenting with it. Jamie Marsland built Pootle Writer and Pootle Books with it. It’s powerful. So far though, for WordPress products with my dev knowledge, I’m having more success asking ChatGPT specific questions kind of one feature or function at a time, and collaborating with it via it’s Canvas.

    2. Hi Eldes,
      at this point I just asked specific questions to ChatGPT, but I read another article with the following setup:

      Using VS Code as IDE and connect it with Cline (AI Agent). Within it you can connect your Claude account and get ready to go in VS Code. Maybe this is another shot for you to try out?

      Good luck and let us know :)
