90% of the code is generated by Claude

Helped: Handcrafting initial architecture and using AI for derivative features.
Got in the way: Maintaining a fully vibe-coded project without understanding architecture.
… I've been given more leeway to develop how I wanted, so I've handcrafted the first few features in a transversal way (handling the file architecture, the routing, the way data and components are splitted, and how the API calls are handled), and then I've used Claude to generate the other feature (most of them I knew to be derivative of the first one).
