Substack newsletter of practical AI for coders
AI for Developers is a Substack newsletter built for people who already write code and want practical ways to bring AI into their workflow rather than opinion pieces about where the industry is headed. Issues cover tool spotlights, workflow walkthroughs, and comparisons of coding assistants and dev agents like Claude Code and Cursor, with a focus on things a reader can try the same day: API integrations, editor setups, and prompting techniques that hold up in real projects.
It's aimed at working developers and teams evaluating which AI tools are worth adopting, not hobbyists looking for a high-level primer. Beyond the weekly issues, the project extends into a searchable directory of AI dev tools and an open source GitHub repo tracking notable AI coding tools, so subscribers get a running reference alongside the newsletter itself.
What sets it apart from broader AI newsletters is that scope: it stays narrowly focused on developer tooling and hands-on technique rather than general AI news, funding rounds, or model releases, and it pairs the writing with a maintained tool directory instead of just a list of links.
