AI-driven workflows have transformed our end-to-end development and collaboration processes
The built-in CI/CD integration in GitLab [Private Offer Only] is lacking. We are still depending on other packages. If GitLab [Private Offer Only] had some CI/CD integration internally, it would be beneficial. Because for CI/CD integration now, we are currently doing it with the direct server side. I think it is not that much integrated with the current scenarios of AI, that is AI agent-based or assistant-based coding patterns. Some more improvement is required in GitLab [Private Offer Only] for CI/CD integration along with AI platforms. AI integration is basically what we need, especially on the CI/CD side of GitLab [Private Offer Only]. The code assistant, such as a cloud code assistant, is making things with GitLab [Private Offer Only], but it is conventional. They are pulling the code and sending the thing. I think they can do some more integration, seamless integration with GitLab [Private Offer Only]. AI is consuming GitLab [Private Offer Only] with the older style. If AI were fully pluggable in GitLab [Private Offer Only], it would be beneficial. I think we could get some more time reduction, especially on the testing side and the code testing side.

Headless commerce flexibility has enabled me to build custom front ends and integrate third party APIs
Their documentation is comprehensive, but I noticed that the Commerce Academy course content was outdated and not enough for me to clear the certificate. However, their documentation and GitHub code samples were more comprehensive and helpful in understanding and upskilling in VTEX. What stood out is the flexibility and the MERN stack tech stack that VTEX uses. This is why I gave it an eight. I did not give it a ten because during development, there were some performance issues with load times, and the Commerce Academy platform content and video content is not up to date. I had to refer to the documentation every time for the latest content. Regarding VTEX Commerce Platform's AI capabilities, they have AI integrated in their admin interface where I can ask questions related to their settings. However, I do not find that useful because it was not working properly at times, it was not giving responses, or it was throwing errors. This made me stop using that AI. The AI integration is not capable enough or is not fully integrated and needs improvement.
