In my previous post I summarized Anthropic's AI-Native SDLC Playbook , which explains how to redesign the software lifecycle once AI agents can write code faster than your process can absorb it. This post is the practical follow-up: how to actually apply it to a web development project, step by step , with files you can copy into your own repo. Throughout this post I'll use one running example: a Next.js + TypeScript e-commerce app that needs a new "Wishlist" feature. The same steps work for React + Node, Vue, Laravel, Django, or any other web stack. Only the commands change. The workflow at a glance Each stage ends by committing a file, and the next stage starts by reading it: Plan → docs/intent/wishlist.md (what and why) Design → docs/specs/wishlist.md (how) Build → code + tests (guided by CLAUDE.md and Skills) Test → passing tests + CI evals Deploy → PR with AI review findings → human approval → CI/CD Maintain...
If you're learning Data Structures & Algorithms (DSA), Big O notation is the very first concept you need to get comfortable with. It looks intimidating at first — O(n log n) ? O(2^n) ? — but the idea behind it is actually simple. This guide breaks it down with everyday analogies and JavaScript examples. What Is Big O Notation? Big O notation describes how the runtime or memory usage of an algorithm grows as the input size ( n ) grows. It doesn't tell you the exact number of seconds or bytes — it tells you the trend : does the work double when the input doubles? Quadruple? Stay the same? Think of it like this: if you're searching for a name in a phone book, does doubling the number of pages double how long you search (bad), or barely change it at all (great)? Big O is how we describe that relationship in a single, comparable label. The Complexities You'll See Most Often O(1) – Constant time. Same speed no matter how big the input is. func...
