Exactly, if the program has less than 100 units or so of logic then it’s going to be a pretty good time so long as you aren’t working with very obscure/private dependencies.
The problems begin when integrating hundreds of units prompted by different people or when writing for work which is both prolific and secret. The context is too limited even with RAG, one would need to train a model filled with secret information.
So basically non-commercial use is the killer app thus far for Claude code. I am sure there are some business people who are not happy about this.
So. It’s a potential superpower for personal projects, yet I don’t see it being very useful in a corporate setting.
I used Claude Code to make this little thing: https://github.com/Baughn/ScriptView
…took me thirty minutes. It wouldn’t have existed otherwise.
