Salva predicts a shift in developer roles: less focus on writing raw code, more on architecting solutions. The IDE will remain a tool, but developers may spend more time designing requirements and overseeing AI-generated code.

“The developer job of the future is more like an architect: breaking down big problems into solvable tasks,” Salva said. AI tools are enabling rapid, collaborative, and automated coding, fundamentally changing how software is built and maintained.

“The dev of the future is an architect” ️ Love that framing — less raw coding, more breaking problems into AI-driven tasks.

AI shifting devs toward design + oversight makes sense. IDEs stay, but the real value is in architecting solutions, not just typing code.
