In my experience, AI is quite good at picking up new tools and techniques. In the sense that the models only need to be provided some documentation for how the new tool or framework works to instantly start using that new framework

Gemini in particular is really good at this

Agreed, for example you can give it a sample FastHTML app, and it will basically review that app pretty much learn/pick up FastHTML (a new Python web framework ~8-9 months old) on the fly without even giving it https://docs.fastht.ml/llms-ctx.txt

Obviously it will do even better if you give it the full documentation but it doesn't do that badly in general with the language when you provide a sample app where it can basically just pick up the patterns of the language/framework.

That's why Gemini 2.5 Pro was so helpful too with 1 million token context window, easily feed it docs for stuff to be more accurate
