Elektron added sampling to the Syntakt, so I did what any dev would do: built a sample manager for it 😄
Drag & drop, loop editing, LOFI mode, dual samples and more - all in a single HTML file!

After 18 years without a personal website (last one was from my student days 😅), I finally have my own corner of the internet. Blog, projects, all built in 2 days with AI coding agents, without writing a single line of code. First blog: thoughts on this shift.

Just dropped a new episode on Azure Cosmos DB TV! Showing how to build AI agents on serverless with LangChain.js, MCP, and Cosmos DB. From burgers to bots 🍔🤖

Yesterday I tried a 7yo Java project to convert old data. Spent 40m installing runtimes, java fx, going from one error to a new one, even tried using Copilot to update code/deps, nothing worked.
Then I asked Copilot to rewrite it in Node.js, took 5m and it worked on first try 😅
If you missed our LangChain event, you can find the videos and all resources (demos, slides, links) in this repo 👉 aka.ms/oss-ai-summit
Even better after a quick update, only 1 step needed 🚀
Just published a quick guide on hosting your Node.js MCP server on Azure Functions.
Only 3 steps to get you up and running with serverless scaling! 🛠️
Take a look and let me know how you like serverless hosting for your servers using Node.js + Anthropic SDK.

Missed our LangChain v1 livestream with @marlene.bsky.social ? Replay is live!
We cover what’s new for JS & Python devs with lots of code examples and practical tips. Catch up here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=slJl... #LangChain #JavaScript #Python
Congrats @langchain.bsky.social team on the v1 release! 🎉
I'm happy to join the celebration with this new serverless Node.js agent built with LangChain.js v1 + MCP tools:
🍔 Interacts with a burger API
🔍 Streams traces to a web UI
☁️ Deploys with azd up
Repo: aka.ms/mcp-burger
Spec Kit shifts workflows from code-first to intent-first: an evolving spec drives plan, tasks, implementation so agents (Copilot, Claude, Gemini) stay aligned. Clear checkpoints, less guesswork. Worth a read: github.blog/ai-and-ml/ge...
Rejoignez-nous à Paris le jeudi 18 septembre pour un atelier pratique sur VS Code et GitHub Copilot!
On parlera astuces, workflows et autres échanges entre devs, tous niveaux bienvenus.

Screenshot of a GitHub Codespaces VS Code interface showing a README.md file for codespaces-llm repository. The file describes a GitHub Codespaces environment with LLM, Python 3.13, uv and the GitHub Copilot VS Code extension. It has a "Launch Codespace" button. Below shows a terminal tab with the command "llm 'Fun facts about pelicans'" which has generated output listing 5 pelican facts: 1. **Huge Beaks:** about their enormous beaks and throat pouches for scooping fish and water, some over a foot long; 2. **Fishing Technique:** about working together to herd fish into shallow water; 3. **Great Fliers:** about being strong fliers that migrate great distances and soar on thermals; 4. **Buoyant Bodies:** about having air sacs beneath skin and bones making them extra buoyant; 5. **Dive Bombing:** about Brown Pelicans diving dramatically from air into water to catch fish.
GitHub Codespaces provides a free web-based development environment backed by a Linux container... and it turns out it also includes a GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable that provides free API access to the GitHub Models collection of LLMs
