Am working on an iPhone app and impressed with how well Claude is able to generate decent/working code with prompts in plain English. I don’t have previous experience in building apps or swift but have a C++ background. Working in smaller chunks and incrementally adding features rather than a large prompt for the whole app seems more practical, is easier to review and build confidence.

Adding/prompting features one by one, reviewing code and then testing the resulting binary feels like the new programming workflow

Prompt/REview/Test - PRET.
