AI Dev Tools

aidevtools.app

// OVERVIEW

The idea

It started with a question on LinkedIn: "Which AI tool should I use as a developer?" The answer isn't simple - it depends on your stack, your budget, and what you're trying to achieve. So instead of typing the same answer over and over, we built a tool picker.

That became AI Dev Tools - a quick scan that recommends the best AI tools for your situation in just a few questions.

// APPROACH

Vibe coding in practice

AI Dev Tools was built with Antigravity for the first version and Claude Code for iterations and new features. A deliberate choice: we wanted to build the same app with two different AI tools to discover where each excels.

The format is a quick scan: a handful of questions about your stack, experience, and needs. Based on that, you get personalized advice with concrete tool recommendations, including why those tools fit your situation.

Two AI tools, two strengths:

01

Antigravity

Fast from zero to working prototype. Ideal for the initial setup and trying out ideas. Less control over details, but the speed is unmatched.

02

Claude Code

More control and better for iterative work. Understands context, can refactor and add features without breaking existing code.

// SECURITY

Act 2: the security scanner

Vibe coding makes building accessible - but "it works" isn't the same as "it's secure." We noticed many vibe-coded projects going live without basic security checks.

So we added a security scanner to AI Dev Tools. It checks for common mistakes: exposed API keys, missing Row Level Security in Supabase, missing security headers, and open endpoints.

Not a pentest, but a quick health check that catches the most common gaps - exactly the level where vibe-coded projects fail the hardest.

Frontend

React + TypeScript + Tailwind CSS

Backend

Supabase (database, auth, edge functions)

Hosting

Netlify (frontend) + Supabase (API)

AI Development

Antigravity (v1) + Claude Code (iterations)

Security Scanner

Custom checks on API keys, RLS, headers, endpoints

// RESULT

What it delivered

Live product

Running on aidevtools.app with real users.

Tool selection

Personalized advice based on your stack and needs.

Security scan

Automated checks for the most common vibe-coding mistakes.

Own dogfooding

We use it ourselves as a starting point for every new project.

// LEARNINGS

What we learned

Build what people ask for

The tool picker emerged because the same question kept coming up. No market research, just a direct response to a concrete problem.

Vibe coding works - with the right tools

Antigravity for speed, Claude Code for control. The combination is stronger than either alone. Knowing when to switch is the skill.

Security is a feature, not an afterthought

The security scanner wasn't planned but became the most valuable part. Many makers never check this - that's where the value lies.
