Claude Code: Prototyping vs. Production
People are discussing how Claude Code can be useful for quickly prototyping applications, but may not be sufficient for building production-ready software, and questioning its utility versus other tools like Gemini.
I mean I am sure you’d get sales if you advertised on TikToks to non programmers but everyone here knows this is just an MCP and you can literally ask Claude code to make it for you or get the open source one from GitHub
non-engineer ships to 10M yen with claude code then says i need real engineers now. most honest take on ai coding. the prototype is free. the production is not.
nope, but claude code will make one for you if you ask it nicely the app itself is live though, I'll not advertise it here but can be found from my profile
