I bet with a co-worker that a migration from angular 15 to angular 19 could be done really fast avoiding months. I spent a whole evening on it and Claude code have never been able to pull off a migration from 15 to 16 on its own. A total waste of time and nothing worked. I had the surprise that it cost me 275$ for nothing. So maybe for greenfield projects it’s smooth and saves time but it’s not a silver bullet on projects with problems.

I've had a lot of issues with Claude and web development.

I ended up asking it how it wanted to work and would an 'AdminKit Template' work to get things moving.

It recommended AdminKit and that was a good move.

For me, custom UI's aren't a big part of the solution, I just need web pages to manage CRUD endpoints to manage the product.

AdminKit has been a good fit so far, but it was a fresh start, no migration.

You asked Claude if AdminKit would work and in answer it recommended AdminKit? Seriously? Wow, what an unexpected turn of events. I am flabbergasted.

Apologies, it was a typo. I asked what 'Admin Template' because there are so many, and rather than build something from scratch, I wanted one it seemed to have understanding of.

It mentioned AdminKit and it worked out pretty well.

Recently, there was story about developer who was able to crush interview and got parallel full-time jobs in several start-ups. Initially he was able to deliver but then not so much.

Somehow your case is reminding this to me, where AI is this overemployed developer.
