All these engineers who claim to write most code through AI - I wonder what kind of codebase that is. I keep on trying, but it always ends up producing superficially okay-looking code, but getting nuances wrong. Also fails to fix them (just changes random stuff) if pointed to said nuances.

I work on a large product with two decades of accumulated legacy, maybe that's the problem. I can see though how generating and editing a simple greenfield web frontend project could work much better, as long as actual complexity is low.

<1 year old startup with fullstack javascript monorepo. Hosted with a serverless platform with good devex, like cloudflare workers.

That’s the typical “claude code writes all my code” setup. That’s my setup.

This does require you to fit your problem to the solution. But when you do, the results are tremendous.
