Cheat Sheet PDF on Patreon:
(Includes all prompts, plus many additional resources.)

Prerequisite for beginners, my “Cloning Your First GitHub Repo” video:

Learn how ChatDev could change software development forever in this beginner's guide to using this groundbreaking AI tool. ChatDev allows anyone to simply describe their idea for an app and watch as AI builds it before their eyes. But what does this mean for programmers? Will ChatGPT replace developers?

In this video, I walk through a step-by-step tutorial on using ChatDev to create a basic ping-pong game from scratch. See how ChatDev's AI team communicates as they design, program, and test the game.

While ChatDev is currently limited to simpler software projects, its rapid evolution means advanced capabilities are likely coming soon. I discuss whether tools like ChatDev and ChatGPT foreshadow an age when traditional programming jobs could become obsolete.

Key topics covered:
01:52 - Downloading and setting up ChatDev
07:35 - Watching ChatDev's AI team build your software
11:29 - Understanding the software ChatDev can currently create
13:27 - Troubleshooting ChatDev

The ability to whip up custom software in minutes with no coding required will soon be as commonplace as using a spreadsheet. ChatDev represents an enormous step toward that future. See it in action and decide for yourself whether AI like this should excite or frighten programmers.

I was really hoping I could have that "Replay" interface as the main interface, and be able to send messages into the team with that view. Sort of disappointing that its only there to replay the chats :(

When I type: *_source env/bin/activate_* I get this error: source: The term 'source' is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or executable program.
Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again. What's wrong here?
