Liu Tao

AI entrepreneur / AI education practitioner

Hi, I am Liu Tao. I am now building in the AI education space.

Previously at ByteDance / Alibaba Cloud / Intel as a software / senior frontend engineer.

I have spent years working across frontend engineering, product experience, and developer productivity. Products I worked on have reached millions of users and received strong feedback, which shaped how I think about useful software.

These days, I enjoy putting new AI tools into real development and learning workflows, then seeing what actually holds up.

What fascinates me about AI Coding is not that it lets us write less code. It shortens the distance between an idea and something usable, discussable, and iterable.

Based in Wuhan / Chengdu, China. Remember me as an AI education practitioner, an AI Coding enthusiast, and perhaps a writer if I were not writing code.

Projects

Things I am building or have worked on include LinkShell, BrowserDisplay, 1Doc, Pencil Box, and iTool.

LinkShell Connect to your Claude, Codex, and Shell from your phone. BrowserDisplay Turn a browser into a local Mac display over WebRTC. 1Doc An open-source multilingual mirror and index for public documentation. Pencil Box A learning growth and career planning platform. iTool An online toolbox for developers, designers, and knowledge workers.

Stack

I usually build with React Vue Expo Python ADK LangGraph Mastra.

Now

I am exploring how AI can become a useful companion in learning: giving feedback, shaping plans, helping learners make things, and making education feel less like a pipeline and more like an ongoing conversation.
