My name is Gergely Szerovay, I worked as a data scientist and full-stack developer for many years, and I have been working as frontend tech lead, focusing on Angular based frontend development. As part of my role, I'm constantly following how Angular and the frontend development scene in general is evolving. To share my knowledge, I started the Angular Addicts monthly newsletter and publication in 2022, so that I can send you the best resources I come across each month.

Angular has evolved very rapidly over the past few years, and in the past year, with the rise of generative AI, our software development workflows have also evolved rapidly. In order to closely follow the evolution of AI-assisted software development, I decided to start building AI tools in public, and publish my progress on AIBoosted.dev. Join my on this learning journey: Subscribe here ๐Ÿš€
