Claude Code helped ship a solo maker project
A small amount of coding knowledge was not enough to get past the hardest part of many : putting them live on the internet. DexCompare is a Pokémon card price comparison site that had been stuck because hosting, databases, , and broken builds made deployment difficult. Claude Code helped write the site and also guided the full shipping process.
It helped set up Postgres on Neon, deploy the site on Vercel, connect , and fix the build when it failed. The most useful part was that each step was explained, so the project could be maintained later instead of becoming a one-time result. DexCompare is now live at dexcompare.app.
A handful of were also built mostly with Claude Code.
