I used to think AI coding assistants were autocomplete on steroids. Fancy IntelliSense. Then I tried using one as an actual junior developer — someone who writes the first draft while I review and refine. Two months later, my workflow is unrecognizable. I just shipped a complete B2B configuration tool — interactive maps, zone polygons, dynamic forms, the works — in under three hours. Here's what changed. The Old Way Before AI agents, my process for a new tool looked like this: Research — How does Leaflet.js work? What's the API for geo polygons? Stack Overflow, docs, tutorials. 45 minutes. Boilerplate — HTML structure, CSS grid, JavaScript imports, event listeners. 30 minutes. Core logic — The actual thing the tool needs to do. 2–3 hours. Debugging — Why doesn't the map render? Why is the polygon offset? 1–2 hours. Polish — Styling, responsive layout, edge cases. 1 hour. Total: 6–8 hours for a medium-complexity tool. And that's if I know the stack.…
