I googled "good practices for ai coding" and got these two pages as the top results: https://dev.to/ranndy360/ai-coding-best-practices-in-2025-4e... https://statistician-in-stilettos.medium.com/best-practices-.... Half the things listed on those pages are just good software engineering practices, regardless of AI.

Some excerpts:

> [Code] in small increments. Run unit tests after each integration.

> Write tests before integrating [new] functions (TDD mindset).

> Define project-wide standards and style guides

> I took the time to map out the modules, data flow, and responsibilities of each component of my app.

> periodic cleanups helped prevent the codebase from becoming overly complex or disorganized

etc.
