Was looking into SvelteKit and got pretty far, pretty quickly in building a prototype of an app. with the help of AI. However, I also got stuck, not understanding what I had actually build. Went back to rebuilding from scratch, making sure I understand each piece of code. There is a lesson here.

And I can't help but wonder; will these "cracked" teams that just started forming, cranking out way more code with AI, grind to a halt in a few months when nobody understands what they built?

I recently got a new client gig which was “we need help untangling this 80.000 lines of code. It used to work at the beginning but now it has bugs and neither we nor Claude can fix” 🙈 I did use a coding agent in the process but the lesson for me is - the human stays in the driver seat.

You’re bring the vision, the architecture, the constraints, the coding style, etc. You also have to review the agent’s output every “phase” of the way. The LLM will be happy to fill in gaps with a “robust and comprehensive” something but that’s just “what best rhymes with my training data”
