About StuBot

Where human creativity meets AI augmentation to build better software.

The Developer

Hi, I'm Stuart, a Senior Software Engineer at Digital Fuel Capital and a Shopify Partner. With over 15 years of experience in software development, I specialize in ecommerce site development and building custom software solutions using cutting-edge technologies and frameworks.

My approach combines traditional software engineering principles with the power of modern AI tools. I believe in leveraging AI not as a replacement for human expertise, but as a force multiplier that enhances productivity, quality, and creativity.

The Philosophy

The name StuBot represents the collaboration between human and AI:

  • Stu - Human expertise, creativity, decision-making, and strategic thinking
  • Bot - AI assistance, rapid prototyping, code generation, and intelligent suggestions

Together, they create a development workflow that's faster, more efficient, and produces higher quality results than either could achieve alone.

AI-Augmented Development

I use AI tools like GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, and other assistants to accelerate development while maintaining high standards:

Human Responsibilities

  • • Architecture decisions
  • • Code review & quality
  • • UX/UI design
  • • Business logic
  • • Testing strategy

AI Contributions

  • • Boilerplate generation
  • • Code suggestions
  • • Documentation
  • • Refactoring ideas
  • • Bug detection

This balanced approach ensures quality while maximizing efficiency — delivering better results in less time.

Current Focus

I'm currently exploring:

  • Next.js 16 and the evolution of React Server Components
  • Advanced AI integration patterns in web applications
  • Building performant, accessible, and maintainable UIs
  • Optimizing developer workflows with AI assistance
  • Enhancing access to AI education with How2AI.org
