Wagtail Preen - a new codemod CLI tool for Wagtail
The talk will be an overview of a tool which I am developing at Torchbox for Wagtail. The tool helps adding features to a Wagtail website in a procedural and predictive way. It's goal is to complement AI agentic assisted coding by providing a reliable, enforceable structural backbone for your Wagtail projects.
I will go through the following points:
- Brief introduction to the tool
- What co you do with preen? Example flows and benefits
- Preen blueprints - a deep dive
- How does preen fit within a modern AI agentic workflow?
- A quick demo of the tool
- Q&A about the tool
The key outcomes of the talk will be: how we can combine procedural code generation with AI derived code, how we can streamline data modelling in our projects and how to ensure consistency and predictability in the age of AI, regardless of the harness and model we use.
