The Journey
3 months of evolution - from frustration to framework
Grok & The Markdown Era
Looking back, ESMC didn't exactly start with a plan — it started with curiosity. I remember those early days, wandering through the world of AI coding, not really knowing what I was building, just wanting to see what's possible.
My first playground was xAI's Grok — a web-based platform that felt like the Wild West of AI coding. It was fun… raw… experimental. But I quickly learned something important: most AI platforms, unlike ChatGPT, couldn't remember what we talked about before. Every chat was a clean slate.
So there I was, trying to build something meaningful while my AI kept forgetting what we were doing. Conversations grew long and laggy. The only fix? Start over. Every. Single. Time.
Then came the workaround — my first little hack. I began creating markdown files to "remind" the AI what we'd done in past sessions. At the start of every new chat, I'd upload them so it could "catch up." It worked — barely. But it had limits: only 20 files per chat, strict file size caps, and eventually, my codebase grew too big. I found myself splitting files into 800–1000-line chunks, juggling which ones to upload.
At some point, I realized… the workarounds became the problem.
No More File Uploads
Then came the turning point — my first encounter with an IDE.
I still remember the relief. No more constant uploads. No more cutting code into little pieces. Just clean, continuous work. Sure, I lost artifact generation (the shiny perks of the web interface), but I gained something far more valuable — freedom.
But of course, new problems came knocking. I hit the 200k token per session wall. That meant after hours of deep work, the AI would simply run out of "memory." I had to wait 3–4 hours for a refresh before continuing. So I got creative — signed up for a second Claude Pro account.
When one ran dry, I'd switch to the other… but here's the catch: the "AI brain" on Account A wasn't the same as on Account B. It forgot everything — its quirks, its intuition, its rhythm. Every switch felt like onboarding a new intern in the middle of a critical project.
It was tiring. But I kept going.
ESMC 1.0 - The Birth
Then came the "aha" moment. Somewhere in a late-night rabbit hole, I stumbled upon the idea of multi-agent parallelization — the concept of running multiple AI instances side-by-side, each handling a slice of the task.
Suddenly, one 200k-token limit became 3x 200k. That was huge.
And just like that, ESMC 1.0 was born — not as a polished framework, but as a scrappy little hack to squeeze more juice out of the AI. It was fast, powerful, and for a while… it worked beautifully.
Until I realized something subtle but serious: AI sometimes liked to band-aid problems instead of truly fixing them. It would produce code that looked right — perfectly formatted, logically explained — but underneath, it wasn't fixed at all. I found myself revisiting the same bugs again and again. It was like chasing shadows.
That's when I decided — ESMC needed to evolve.
ESMC 3.8 - Intelligence That Learns
Three months. Countless rebuilds. Late nights filled with trial, error, and occasional triumphs.
What started as a hack to bypass token limits slowly became something bigger — a living, breathing coding framework.
ESMC 3.8 isn't just a set of scripts or automations. It learns. It adapts. It begins to understand you — your habits, your coding style, your rhythm. It predicts what you're about to ask, how you like your code structured, even the quirks in how you name your functions.
It saves time. It writes better code. It stays consistent. And best of all, it doesn't hallucinate.
After all this time, ESMC has grown into more than a tool — it's a companion, an intelligent partner in creation. A reminder that every frustration, every workaround, every sleepless night… was worth it.
ESMC is something I kept coming back to.
Every time I coded with it, I found myself writing cleaner, faster, and with more clarity. It's like having a compass that always points you to true North — no matter how deep you are in the maze of code.
What's even crazier? This very platform — the website, the SDK, the content you're seeing right now — was built using ESMC 3.8.
And it only took me three days.
I know that sounds wild. But don't just take my word for it — try it for yourself. The core version is completely free, and even if you go for the MAX version, the value you'll get from it will more than speak for itself.
ESMC isn't just another tool.
It's the result of countless experiments, late nights, and hard-earned lessons — distilled into something that simply works wonders.
