I’m excited to share my Capstone project, DevFlow, developed as part of my capstone and in collaboration with Teitronix. DevFlow is a full-stack, AI-driven platform aimed at enhancing productivity and quality in software development by integrating Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and local Large Language Models (LLMs).
Key Features:
SRS & Documentation Generation: Automatically generate Software Requirement Specifications (SRS) from meeting transcripts or prompts. DevFlow can also summarize long documents, making it easier for developers to extract relevant information.
UML/ER Diagramming: The system uses Mermaid.js to generate UML and ER diagrams based on project requirements, enabling real-time diagram creation from natural language inputs.
Unit Testing: Developers can clone their code from GitHub, automatically generate unit tests for each file, and then run these tests in a secure, browser-based Linux virtual terminal. The system ensures privacy by processing everything locally.
Code Validation: A built-in code validation feature analyzes code quality, linting, and offers suggestions to improve code standards.
The platform provides a unified environment where developers can write, test, and validate their code without switching between multiple tools. It also integrates a custom IDE and a persistent virtual machine (VM) for a seamless experience. The entire platform runs on a Docker-in-Docker architecture, ensuring security and scalability across teams.
Why It Matters:
DevFlow significantly reduces the cognitive load for developers by automating routine tasks such as documentation and testing. By keeping everything locally hosted, it ensures sensitive project data remains secure. This approach also promotes more efficient collaboration between technical and non-technical teams, enabling faster development cycles and improved communication through shared, validated documentation and diagrams.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on the potential for AI in improving the software development lifecycle! Feel free to ask questions or provide feedback.
