I’m benchmarking LLama 3.2 (released 2 weeks ago) with Claude-3.5-sonnet and LLama seems to be winning. I have been copy pasting my files into WhatsApp chat to get this to work/figuring out how much context I need to provide it. The dream for me is to be able to use meta AI with ctrl-L within cursor.
Benchmarking:
I asked them how you can detect changes in specific form values
Here’s LLama’s response
To check if specific form values, such as materials, have changed in React Hook Form, you can utilize the watch function or formState object.
*Using watch:*
import { watch } from 'react-hook-form';
// ...
const materials = watch('materials');
You can also watch for changes in materials using the watch function with a callback:
watch('materials', (newMaterials) => {
console.log('Materials changed:', newMaterials);
});
*Using formState:*
import { formState } from 'react-hook-form';
// ...
const { isDirty, dirtyFields } = formState;
// Check if materials has changed
const hasMaterialsChanged = dirtyFields.materials;
To detect changes in materials and perform an action:
useEffect(() => {
if (hasMaterialsChanged) {
// Perform action when materials change
}
}, [hasMaterialsChanged]);
*Using useEffect with watch:*
useEffect(() => {
const materials = watch('materials');
// Perform action when materials change
}, [watch('materials')]);
Choose the approach that best fits your requirements.

I also asked 1 more question (question and sonnet response is attached as an image):
Here’s Llama’s response:
The error occurs because tss-react/mui expects the StylesProps type to be an indexable type (i.e., have an index signature) to ensure flexibility in accessing properties.
Interface vs. Type Alias
In TypeScript:
- Interfaces define a blueprint for objects, focusing on structure and implementability.
- Type Aliases create a new name for an existing type.
When using interface, TypeScript checks for exact matching, including index signatures. However, when using type aliases, TypeScript allows for more flexibility.
Index Signature
An index signature is a way to define a type that allows accessing properties dynamically using bracket notation ([key: string]).
Solution
To resolve the error:
Option 1: Add Index Signature to Interface
interface StylesProps {
isValNegative: boolean;
[key: string]: unknown; // Add index signature
}
Option 2: Use Type Alias
type StylesProps = {
isValNegative: boolean;
}
Option 3: Use Record Utility Type
type StylesProps = Record<string, unknown> & {
isValNegative: boolean;
}
Why does Type Alias work?
Type aliases are more lenient than interfaces regarding index signatures. When using type, TypeScript doesn't enforce the same level of structure checking.
By using one of these solutions, you'll resolve the error and ensure compatibility with tss-react/mui.
