In this episode of the Angular Master Podcast, recorded live at Google Next 2026 in Las Vegas, I sit down with Jan-Niklas Wortmann, AI Developer Advocacy Team Lead at JetBrains, for a very practical, no-nonsense conversation about AI in real developer workflows.
Jan operates right at the intersection of IDEs, developer experience, and AI tooling. He spends his time testing, comparing, and challenging AI tools — not based on demos, but on what actually works in everyday development.
In this conversation, we cut through the hype and focus on what truly matters when building Angular applications with AI support.
We talk about how AI is changing the developer experience inside JetBrains IDEs, what “useful on a Tuesday afternoon” really means, and why context — not just prompts — is critical for making AI tools effective in real Angular projects.
Jan shares honest insights on where today’s AI coding assistants shine, where they still struggle, and how you can realistically integrate them into your workflow without compromising code quality or architecture.
We also dive into:
- how to evaluate AI agents beyond flashy demos
- the role of project structure and architecture in AI-assisted development
- whether we’re moving toward chat-based workflows or invisible AI embedded directly into the IDE
- must-try AI features for Angular developers using JetBrains tools
- and how team collaboration is evolving in an AI-driven world
If you’re building Angular apps and wondering how to actually use AI tools in a way that makes sense — this episode is for you.
No buzzwords. No hype. Just real, practical experience from inside the ecosystem.
