Gemini Pro preview - Even better coding performance | App Developer Magazine
Briefly

The recent release of Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview offers significant enhancements in coding capabilities for developers. The update emphasizes improved front-end and UI development, alongside advancements in core coding tasks like editing code and creating complex workflows. Notably, Gemini 2.5 Pro ranks first on the WebDev Arena leaderboard for its ability to produce functional and visually appealing web applications. Collaborations with entities like Cognition and Replit are pushing the boundaries of agentic programming, showcasing the model's deep understanding and reasoning capabilities.
We found Gemini 2.5 Pro to be the best frontier model when it comes to 'capability over latency' ratio. I look forward to rolling it out on Replit Agent whenever a latency-sensitive task needs to be accomplished with a high degree of reliability, said Michele Catasta, President, Replit.
The updated Gemini 2.5 Pro achieves leading performance on our junior-dev evals. It was the first-ever model that solved one of our evals involving a larger refactor of a request routing backend. It felt like a more senior developer because it was able to make correct judgement calls and choose good abstractions, said Silas Alberti, Founding Team, Cognition.
