One has to verify AI’s result. No excuses like “It wasn’t me, it was AI”. That should keep brains alert and working.

For each project it has access to the Xojo source code, to the mysql schema (if using one) and I use AI to rewrite in Swift or Flutter.

When writing a new app in flutter, it is important to define a global UI theme and UI rules or you can end up with many screens that have a similar feature (tables for example) but don’t look alike.
