I usually work with TypeScript and React, and I wanted to test how useful Claude Code would be in real development tasks.</p> <h2> What I Used Claude Code For </h2> <p>I tried using Claude Code for the following tasks:</p> <ul> <li>Fixing TypeScript type errors</li> <li>Debugging browser errors</li> <li>Refactoring existing React components</li> <li>Generating boilerplate code</li> <li>Writing unit tests</li> <li>Using a CLAUDE.md file to provide project context</li> </ul> <p>One thing I noticed is that Claude Code was particularly good at refactoring and explaining existing code. It was also helpful when fixing type mismatch errors in TypeScript.</p> <h2> CLAUDE.md Was Very Useful </h2> <p>I created a CLAUDE.md file to describe:</p> <ul> <li>Project structure</li> <li>Coding guidelines</li> <li>Naming conventions</li> <li>Tech stack</li> </ul> <p>After adding this file, the responses became much more relevant and consistent.</p> <h2> Example Tasks I Tried </h2> <p>Some of the tasks I tested:</p> <ul> <li>Fixing a TypeScript type mismatch error</li> <li>Refactoring an existing React component</li> <li>Generating boilerplate code for components</li> <li>Writing unit tests for functions</li> <li>Comparing Claude Code with GitHub Copilot</li> </ul> <h2> Full Workflow Video </h2> <p>I recorded my full workflow and examples in this video:<br> <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RekYS8vPiFI?start=25"> </iframe> </p> <h2> Final Thoughts </h2> <p>I don’t think Claude Code completely replaces other tools, but it can definitely improve parts of the development workflow like debugging, refactoring, and writing tests.</p> <p>I’m curious if other developers are using Claude Code in their workflow and what your experience has been.</p> webdev frontend ai react
