Spec Driven Development with IBM Bob

Get started with Bob today → https://bob.ibm.com/download/?utm_source=bob-youtube

In this video, Alex Soto walks you through spec-driven development (SDD) using IBM Bob and GitHub Spec Kit — an open-source toolkit for working with AI coding agents the right way.

Instead of asking a code assistant to jump straight into writing code, you'll learn how to guide it through a structured workflow: define project rules, write a business specification, plan the technical approach, break it into tasks, and only then implement. The result is less hallucination, more context, and code you can actually trust.
