Ive been using LLMs through the web to help with discreet pieces of code and scripts for a while now. I’ve been putting it off (out of fear?) but I finally sat down with Claude Code on the console and an empty directory to see what the fuss was about. Over about a total of 4 hrs and maybe $15 pay as you go it became clear things are drastically different now in web dev. I’m not saying changed for good or bad just things have definitely changed and will never go back.
