- I spent a couple months working on a fork of AOSP (Android operating system), creating OS baked apps, and I realized how bad the coding assistants were for Android Studio (ie. Gemini). So, I built a coding assistant plugin designed for Android Development. It's simple to use: hit `CMD+L`, and a chat window opens in a side panel on the right with context over

- Hey HN, I made a simple coding agent plugin in Android Studio called Firebender. Here’s an unedited 5-minute video where it writes tests for an Android app and iterates against the Gradle task output on its own ( https://docs.firebender.com/get-started/agent ). You can use the plugin for free, no sign up needed, on the jetbrains marketplace. The agent can ed

# Design Brief: Minimal Monochrome
Monochrome palette with a single accent color, hairline dividers, and generous whitespace.
## Design Tokens
```css
:root {
--background: #fafafa;
--surface: #ffffff;
--foreground: #171717;
--muted-foreground: #858585;
--accent: #171717;
--radius: 8px;
--font-heading: "Inter", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
--font-body: "Inter", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```
Color area ratio: Background #FAFAFA (~83%) · Surface #FFFFFF (~7%) · Text #171717 (~4%) · Muted Text #858585 (~5%) · Accent #171717 (~1%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.
## Layout & Conversion Structure
- Hero layout: Split Copy & Visual
- Navigation: Full-Width Top Bar
- Theme & density: Light · Airy
- Border radius & elevation: Medium Radius; no drop shadows—separate layers with hairline borders and whitespace
- Primary visual medium: Product UI Screenshot / Component
- Conversion CTA: Download App / Install Extension · Trust bar uses Customer / Press Logo Strip
- Headline hook: Category Positioning Anchor
- Hero components: Large Hero Product Shot, Customer Logo Wall
- Spatial layout notes: Split Copy & Visual hero structure paired with download app / install extension CTA and customer / press logo strip.
- Visual summary: Minimal Monochrome (Light canvas, airy density) featuring split copy & visual layout and product ui screenshot / component visuals.
## Avoid
- Multi-stop neon gradients
- Heavy drop shadows
- More than one competing accent color
Implement the UI following the design tokens and layout specifications above: use only these color variables, and reserve the accent color strictly for primary actions and active states. Adopt only this visual style—never copy any reference product’s brand name, logo, copy, or imagery.
