Ask HN: Who build production apps with out seeing code?

2•amukbils•1h ago
Cursor now defaults to agentic mode with no code editor at all, which got me wondering: who is writing or who is building production-grade apps with actual real user traction without ever seeing the code? I can imagine doing that. At least right now, in the current technology, it's too risky.

Are there real examples of people building and shipping real products without ever needing the code editor? Just to clarify, 99% of our code is written by AI, but it's helpful to have the code editor so we can just review and see what changed. VS Code is good for that, but Claude Code and Codex and all the other CLI-based stuff is just not really well optimized for reading code.

Assume you meant "can't" here.

I think you can see evidence of how much people are paying attention to the Ai code in their products. Google Cloud has become awful in the last year as they have over indexed on this idea with gemini

Ask HN: Is page 2 HN better?
