# TSYS Development Stack - SHIP OR BUST

This repository is the home of the TSYS Group Development Stack.

It's been "reset" (the working directory anyway) (keeping the git history)(messy though it is...) at 2025-11-05 15:44. For the very last time!
I need to ship this by 2025-11-15. 

This file has been created to form a "line in the sand" and force myself to ship ship ship.

I started working on this project in late August early September (creating/destroying dozens of repos/attempts/versions). I've tried all manner of coding agents/approaches/structures. This is very public and very messy. On purpose.  I want folks to see all the ups and downs of developing a large project (with or without AI coding agents).

After weeks of :

- Claude Code
- Open Code
- Codex
- Gemini
- Qwen

(and some Cursor, and some roo/cline/continue in VsCode)

and messing with git workflows/git worktrees 

and lots of reading of what other folks are doing ....

I keep coming back to qwen running in a full screen terminal window on my right screen, and VsCode on the left.

I briefly tried running qwen in the VsCode integrated terminal (with/without the qwen coding assistant plugin) but I think the combination of xterm.js/node/ssh was too much and when I would resize the terminal window or move VsCode around, weird repaint issues would happen and sometimes qwen (and the other agents as well) would crash. That was annoying.

So now I keep things simple.

One VsCode window/workspace
One terminal (two tabs) (the actual work and a QA tab)

All in on Qwen. Just cancelled my ChatGPT Plus subscription and deleted my account.

Lets get this built...
