Tips and tricks we've picked up along the way.
How Claude Code's mechanisms like skills, slash commands, and subagents change the way developers think about software engineering when context management becomes a first-class problem.

At a recent Olio Apps hackathon, teams were given a clear assignment: build a multiplayer game in one day, using a generative AI code assistant. One team's response became Breakin' the Louvre, a three-player heist game that reveals what happens when AI isn't just present, but required.

During a recent internal hackathon, our dev teams set out with a clear constraint: build a game that's playable, online, and real in a single day. By the end, they had shipped 6 online multiplayer games, with the winner being a multiplayer Minesweeper complete with spectators, chat, and real-time updates.

While vibe coding can get you quite far, the hardening process that makes an application secure, scalable, and production-ready still requires a disciplined software development lifecycle. Without that, organizations run into problems with security, stability, and compliance.

Many founders and innovators come to us with a vision already forming in their minds. But often, those early visions are obscured by assumptions, blind spots, or competing priorities. A discovery session is where we peel back the layers, hold up a mirror, and ask the hard questions that bring clarity and refine the product before valuable development time is spent.

Vibe coding is a rising trend in AI-assisted software development that allows users to build functional web apps, landing pages, and tools by simply describing their vision through natural language prompts. Instead of writing full codebases, you 'vibe' with an AI giving instructions and letting the tool generate the code.
