QuackAI with François-Guillaume Fernandez

The Developers' Bakery

Welcome back to another episode of The Developers’ Bakery. Today we have on stage FG Fernandez, the founder of QuackAI.

QuackAI is a VS Code Extension that helps your contributiors when they’re typing to make sure their contributions won’t fail to comply with your project guidelines.

Moreover, FG had the opportunity to join the YCombinator program with QuackAI as a sole contributor. Today he will tell us his story with this tool and what’s next for it!
