Insights on AI-assisted development, manufacturing digitization, and Low-Code/No-Code solutions on the Microsoft stack.
I'm thrilled to announce that Outsiders Solutions will be represented at the Manufacturing & Production Automation (MPA) 2026 conference at the Palais des Congrès de Montréal — a milestone moment for our manufacturing SaaS journey.
After building an enterprise manufacturing SaaS with GitHub Copilot: where AI excels, where human expertise is critical, development velocity metrics, best practices for effective prompting, and how AI-assisted development changes solo entrepreneurship.
Real examples with before/after code snippets: generating Dataverse entities, building SignalR hubs for real-time alerts, creating the Windows Gateway for RF devices, and writing comprehensive tests. See the actual prompts and Copilot's outputs.
Why .NET for industrial software reliability, Blazor Server for real-time manufacturing UIs, and Dataverse for multi-tenant data. How GitHub Copilot helped evaluate trade-offs and generate proof-of-concepts.
How AI-assisted development changed the equation for solo founders building enterprise software. Manufacturing plants face $500-2K/hour in hidden downtime—here's how I built a modern solution to fix it.
