368 - Oltre GitHub Spec Kit: OpenSpec e BMAD a confronto
Nella scorsa puntata ti ho parlato di GitHub Spec Kit e di come lo Spec-Driven Development possa aiutarci a chiarire i requisiti prima di iniziare a scrivere codice.
Ma GitHub Spec Kit non è l'unico strumento disponibile. Esistono anche OpenSpec e BMAD Method, che affrontano lo stesso problema con approcci differenti.
In questa puntata ti parlo di questi due strumenti, delle principali differenze rispetto a GitHub Spec Kit e di come permettono di gestire specifiche, requisiti e attività di sviluppo.

367 - GitHub Spec Kit: l'AI scrive codice, ma chi scrive i requisiti?
Oggi, grazie all'AI, possiamo scrivere codice sempre più velocemente. Ma cosa succede quando i requisiti sono incompleti o poco chiari?
In questa puntata ti parlo di GitHub Spec Kit e di Spec-Driven Development, un approccio che mette le specifiche al centro dello sviluppo software, aiutandoci a lavorare meglio con i coding agent.

Before you implement, read the spec.
A shared specification keeps requirements, decisions, and project goals visible, making it easier for engineering teams to deliver consistent results with AI-assisted development.

Vibe coding doesn't scale.
AI writes code fast then context drifts, decisions hide in the code, and solves the same problem differently.
Code Studio flips it:
Spec first → Plan the architecture → Agents build against it.
Specs, not boilerplate.
