Recharging for productivity
Modern development workflows are plagued by productivity and efficiency challenges. Developers face high cognitive load due to frequent window switching to locate problem references, which disrupts focus and hampers performance. Adopting new technologies and coding paradigms often involves a steep learning curve, delaying experimentation and innovation. Furthermore, cross-platform dependencies, such as requiring backend developers to manage minor UI tasks, lead to inefficiencies and bottlenecks.
To address these challenges and streamline operations, BluSmart turned to AI-driven solutions. This strategic shift aimed to optimize workflows, enhance collaboration, and accelerate the delivery of innovative and high quality services to its customers.
Coding with AI
GitHub Copilot, GitHub Copilot Chat, and GitHub Copilot plugins for development environments like VSCode, IntelliJ IDEA, Goland, and PyCharm have revolutionized BluSmart’s software development workflow. These tools offer intuitive coding assistance, enabling the rapid development of a new service in just three days and the seamless migration of an entire project from Python to Go, with GitHub Copilot handling much of the heavy lifting.
These tools empower teams to write cleaner, bug-free code resulting in developer efficiency increasing by 20–30%. The automated generation of unit test cases has significantly reduced manual effort, ensuring accuracy and saving time. Key impacts include:
Efficient issue resolution: Long-standing code issues resolved with ease.
Automated testing: Time-saving, automatically generated unit tests
