TypeScript and Go on a 1.5 million SLOC production codebase; a complex SaaS tool for financial planning and analysis. Quite far from being “just CRUD”. Before Anthropic Opus 4.5 I was trying out Claude Code and wasn’t all that impressed, but since then it’s definitely helped. The project I wrapped up before Christmas would have gone into the new year without it. You’ve still got to keep a close eye on it; whenever I’ve got lazy with review, trusting it too much, I’ve always regretted it. It’s never one-shotted anything, even with plan mode and all that. I’m a natural skeptic on this stuff and was very actually skeptical for most of last year. But I’m very confident there’s a large net productivity gain now.
I don't know where you got the "just CRUD" quote from. I never mentioned CRUD. But this sure sounds like it would be CRUD with some additional models in the backend.
What makes it not just CRUD? Is it using some complex model for forecasting?
I wasn't quoting you, they are scare quotes. It is a web app with a TypeScript and Go backend, but to call it a CRUD app would be misleading (despite the fact that yes once you boil it all down, everything is a CRUD operation) because it's a complex and flexible web app. It's the kind of thing that a bunch of people would prefer to be a native app; it's spreadsheet-like.
