I made a little phonics flashcard game for my kids https://apps.apple.com/us/app/3letterstories/id6753956099
Also related to that: a tool to fine tune the images on the flash cards (which are all AI generated on gemini).
Some internal tooling - a self contained page that does JSON/python dict visualization - this obviously exists already.
Nothing big yet, but it's only been a couple of days. This tool does seem really good at building frontends/dashboards.
A GUI for the notmuch email indexer (PHP) https://www.splitbrain.org/blog/2026-01/09-gmail_backup_notm...
An AppImage installer (Go) https://www.splitbrain.org/blog/2026-01/20-appy_an_appimage_...
All three just this month. Each of them took me several hours, because they're not vibe coded but carefully reviewed and refined until I was reasonably happy with the resulting code. Could I have written them myself? Sure. Would I ever have started without claude? Hell no.
A few medium to big projects:
- a scraper of product pricing in shops near me, to track inflation over time
- a clone of typeform, but more customized on my needs
- end-to-end automation of managing facebook ads campaign (create/track/scale)
- dashboard to automate managing comments on multiple facebook pages
- a classic polymarket bot
- a pdf editor inbrowser so all my data stays local
- a landing page generator for ecommerce, just give the product description
- a slideshow generator using nanobananapro
- an infinite canvas to work in to generate images, with nodes
- agent automations to test AI voice agents in calls
Anything that comes to mind I can setup and deploy in a few minutes.
Nothing groundbreaking but it's all stuff that I didn't know how to do before, and now I know how to build/maintain/backup/upgrade with ClaudeCode. I know most senior devs would say "well this was all doable before" but they forget that not everyone had all the necessary skills to do all this stuff. Now it's a one man job.
