Mufeed, the 21-year-old founder of Lyminal and Stition.AI from Kerala, took to X to share about Devika - an ‘AI coder’. Despite being “far from the capabilities of Devin” at the moment, Devika could emerge as an alternative to “World's first AI software engineer”.
“Inviting early testers and contributors to Project Devika - The open-source alternative to Devin,” he wrote. “As of now, Devika is far from the capabilities of Devin... but we'll eventually get there. So I am calling the open-source community to join forces!” he added.

He explained more about Devika and the AI-backed program’s operations in the following lines. While replying to his own tweet, he added, “This whole thing started out as a joke, then I wrote the entire project hackathon-style in about 20 hours spanning the last three days... so I rushed a bit, hence the code quality isn't the best. And I am not a UI or web designer by any means, I just learned Svelte for this project and cooked, I guess I did a good job?”
