Best Use of Llama 3.1 — Dev AI Agent at AI Agent Hackathon 2024
I’m excited to share that our project Dev_AI_Agent received both the Best Use of Llama 3.1 Award from Meta and placed as Runner-Up at the AI Agent Hackathon!
What is Dev AI Agent?
Dev_AI_Agent is a groundbreaking coding assistant that operates as an intelligent agent on local machines, automating up to 99% of the app development process. It builds entire applications from scratch — components, pages, and APIs — while supporting various tech stacks like Next.js and Angular.
Key Features
- Full App Generation: Takes a complex idea and transforms it into a fully functional app in minutes
- Multi-Stack Support: Works with Next.js, Angular, React, and more
- Privacy-First: Offers both local and deployed versions, ensuring full code security
- On-Device Execution: Optimized to run Llama 3.1 efficiently on M1 Macs with 32GB RAM
- 100x Speed: Demonstrated building a complete note-taking app (Notex) in minutes vs. traditional development
The Demo
During the RAG-A-THON event, we demonstrated how Dev AI Agent can take a complex idea like a note-taking application and transform it into a fully functional app in minutes — at 100x the speed of traditional development.
Awards
- Best Use of Llama 3.1 — Awarded by Meta for optimal use of the Llama 3.1 model
- Runner-Up — AI Agent Hackathon 2024 by Lablab.ai
Why It Matters
This project highlights the transformative power of AI in building and shipping products faster than ever. By running LLMs on-device, we maintain privacy while delivering incredible speed — making development faster, cost-effective, and highly customizable.
Tech Stack
- LLM: Meta Llama 3.1 (on-device)
- Hardware: Optimized for Apple M1/M2 with 32GB RAM
- Frameworks: Next.js, Angular support
- Architecture: Local-first agent with cloud deployment option
This experience was a game-changer, and I’m excited to continue pushing the boundaries of what AI can do in app development!
