So yesterday I prompted Claude to replicate existing functionality we have in our NextJs app into a React Native app so we could also have Android and iOS mobile apps for @devshipyard
Initial thoughts, spent a lot of time back and fourth (Opus 4.5 Thinking)
It did get it right after a lot of direction and manual testing but GPT-5.2-High would have gotten this right in one shot.
GPT in my opinion is a lot better at understanding big complex codebases and refactoring.
Regardless the result was still optimal with Claude and in all honesty 8 hours of total time spent to get a complete React Native app going is nuts.
There comes a time in a founders life where you sit back and admire the great user experience you have created.
In this case im actually sitting back and realizing I have replaced my self. ๐
We can't wait to share with you all what we have been building!
One of the pain points of vibe coding or using Opus 4.5 is it can make you the app thats great. But then what?
Most that get into vibe coding give up early because they dont understand dev ops, command line etc.
Thats where Shipyard comes in, we let you use the Claude model of your choice to build your app in a containerized enviroment that is hosted on the cloud. Share your preview/apps with friends and once your happy with it you can either deploy your app or you can list it for sale on our market place.
Code ownership is always yours with changes being pushed to your own Github repo so you can migrate whenever you wish to.
Describe your app and let Shipyard handle the logistics and hosting for you while you maintain full ownership of your code base!
