    Google's vibe-coding tool Opal comes to Gemini

    Google is integrating Opal, its vibe-coding tool for building AI-powered mini apps, directly into the Gemini web interface. Users can now create custom apps (called Gems) using natural language descriptions, with a visual editor that arranges steps without writing code. The tool includes a new view that converts written prompts into step-by-step workflows, and advanced users can access more customization options at opal.google.com. This move positions Google alongside other AI-powered app-building tools like Lovable, Cursor, and offerings from Anthropic and OpenAI.

    Introducing Agent Development Kit for TypeScript: Build AI Agents with the Power of a Code-First Approach

    Google released Agent Development Kit (ADK) for TypeScript, an open-source framework for building AI agents and multi-agent systems. The code-first approach lets developers define agent logic, tools, and orchestration directly in TypeScript, applying traditional software development practices like version control and CI/CD. While optimized for Gemini and Vertex AI, ADK is model-agnostic and supports third-party tools. It includes native integration with MCP Toolbox for database connections and supports the latest Gemini 3 models.

    4-Step Gemini 3.0 Pro System For Beautiful UI Designs

    A four-step workflow for generating UI designs using Gemini 3.0 Pro before building functionality. The process starts with creating a product requirements document (PRD), extracting core features and UX considerations, building a design system based on visual inspiration, and finally generating screen-by-screen designs with all states. The approach emphasizes designing upfront rather than treating UI as an afterthought, using structured prompts to guide the AI through creating a complete design system with colors, typography, and component specifications that can be implemented in React with Tailwind CSS.

    Conductor: Introducing context-driven development for Gemini CLI

    Conductor is a new extension for Gemini CLI that introduces context-driven development by formalizing project specs and plans in persistent Markdown files. Instead of relying on chat logs, it helps developers create structured documentation that lives alongside code, enabling better planning, team collaboration, and AI agent control. The workflow involves setting up project context, creating tracks for features with spec and plan documents, and implementing changes while maintaining state across sessions. This approach keeps developers in control while allowing AI to work with deep project awareness.
