    It's 2026. Where's your Spec Kit? 🧰 Instead of coding first and writing docs later, spec-driven development flips the script. Start with a spec, a clear contract for how your code should behave. This makes it easier for your AI agents to generate, test, and validate high-quality code. 🤖 Get started with this new open source toolkit. ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/gkcVQ5s6
