Hey all —

I make a photo gallery website called mood.site. I made it initially as a test to see how far along I could build something with ChatGPT circa early 2024. A year since release the site has garnered a fair number of users, so I used it as a moment to re-evalutate the SOTA for AI-assisted coding with Cline and Claude Code.

I used both extensively to first migrate the application to Svelte, then used Claude Code exclusively to "vibecode" (before I knew what vibecoding was!) the premium feature set I've since released. The site works and people are now paying for it, so I took some time to write nearly 8000 words about the whole process!

Hope you enjoy and happy to answer any questions!
