Building the Future, One Sprint at a Time
When I'm not laughing at AI-generated content, I'm building accessibility-first platforms like this in days, not months.
The AI-Accelerated Process
This platform (v1.3.1 after 88 iterations!) demonstrates my systematic approach to building with AI that delivers production-ready code, not prototypes.
Specification Phase: The Foundation
Load comprehensive frameworks into Claude Projects - methodology docs, compliance standards (WCAG AAA, OAIC, VAISS), architectural patterns. Days of iteration with Claude Opus & Gemini. Version 1... version 32... version 88. Each refinement sharpens the vision.
Sprint Breakdown: Systematic Execution
Take that final spec and break it into daily sprints. Load into Claude Code. Day 1-2: Auth + infrastructure. Day 3-4: Core features. Day 5-7: Polish & deploy. The AI doesn't just code - it architectures, implements, and documents at inhuman speed.
- → Day 1-2: Foundation (Auth, DB, Infrastructure)
- → Day 3-4: Core Features (Content, Accessibility, Social)
- → Day 5-7: Quality & Security (Testing, Monitoring, Hardening)
The Long Bit: Real-World Refinement
Here's the reality: You have a solid base product in days. Then comes methodical work - breaking down each component, testing with real users (especially critical for accessibility), refining based on feedback. This is where AI as a tireless pair programmer really shines.
"AI doesn't replace the thinking - it accelerates the building."
