IndyDevDan outlines his five big bets for engineering in 2026, centered around agentic coding. These include leveraging custom agents, deprecating old engineering skills, breaking agentic coding constraints by improving planning and review processes, investing in multi-agent UIs (specifically voice interfaces), and maximizing compute usage. He emphasizes the importance of adapting to agent-first engineering to stay ahead of the curve and announces the release of "Tactical Agentic Coding," a course designed to help engineers master these tactics and build systems that can automate code deployment. The course aims to transform engineers into indispensable assets by teaching them to build and manage agentic systems.
