This is the frontend of an application built entirely with AI (Claude Code)
Note the amount of elapsed time as this request is being processed. (26 minutes)
There was no backend included with ths project. While I was agnostic on the stack used for the backend in my prompt, I did explicitly state that a backend should be included. It simply was not. I attempted to ask for a backend to be generates a secnd time and given a placeholder JSON file as a mock database.
AI does a few things really well and is immensely useful in many applications. In this particular instance, there were some glaring areas for opportunity. To begin with, the time Claude Code spent processing the request before rendering any output should not be understated. Additionally, there was not a backed provoded as requested. The average person simply vibe-coding such an application would likley not know what is missing or how to build a database, seed it, build a middle-tier server and successfully connect all layers. Furthermore, a person whose role is not technical would be in far above their head when trying to troubleshoot, debug or add functionality to the application.
