SUMMARY:November | Building and running Web Apps with AI tools
DESCRIPTION:PHP Sussex\n**Last PHP Sussex meetup of 2026!**\n\nIt’s almo
 st exactly a year since Anthropic and OpenAI released Opus 4.5 and GPT 5.1
 \, a turning point marking the transition from chatbots to autonomous agen
 ts. Many industry leaders started 2026 with entirely new perspectives on t
 he technology\, having had the time to experiment with those models over t
 he Christmas break.\n\nA year later\, have those promises materialised?\n\
 n[James Turner](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamesshawturner)\, Technical D
 irector & co-founder of Esparter Ltd\, is one of those engineers who fully
  embraced AI for their development workflow. In “Building and running We
 bApps with AI tools”\, he explains how he builds and maintains software 
 using Large Language Models (LLMs).\n\n**Building and running WebApps with
  AI tools**\n\nWhen used properly AI can help drastically improve the effi
 ciency (and quality) of building and maintaining software systems. Like an
 y powerful tool\, LLMs have practical limitations and second order effects
  that can result in negative consequences.\n\nTaking one of our web-based 
 SaaS products (orderwhizz.com) as an example we’ll look at some of those
  limitations and how they were mitigated. There will be some theory\, code
  samples and recommendations for more effective use of LLMs when developin
 g and supporting production web apps.\n\nThe meetup will take place at [Ru
 nway East](https://runwayea.st/?utm_source=SiliconBrighton&utm_medium=emai
 l&utm_campaign=Event+Sponsorship&utm_id=Silicon+Brighton+RWE+Sponsorship+e
 mail) in Brighton from 6:30 pm\, with the talk starting at around 7 pm. As
  always\, there will be food and drinks and plenty of time to chat with fe
 llow developers. After the talk\, we’ll head to [UnBarred Taproom](https
 ://www.unbarredbrewery.com/pages/taproom)\, a 2-minute walk from our venue
 \, to wind up the evening over a craft beer 🍻.\n\nPHP Sussex is support
 ed by [Silicon Brighton](https://siliconbrighton.com/) and [Runway East](h
 ttps://runwayea.st/?utm_source=SiliconBrighton&utm_medium=email&utm_campai
 gn=Event+Sponsorship&utm_id=Silicon+Brighton+RWE+Sponsorship+email).\n\nRu
 nway East has been fighting boring offices since 2014. Members get team bl
 iss guaranteed\, space to scale and Big Desk Energy.
