So I kept hearing that the author did this purely because Anthropic wanted a PR story, but reading this entire very well written post, with meticulous detail, what say you now? I never thought it made any sense for him to do this just because Anthropic asked him to. Sometimes you find yourself fighting the stack you're currently using, and another stack (or programming language) looks like it would alleviate a lot. LLM was just another tool in his toolbelt. I had already ported projects that were old and abandoned before using Claude Code, so I knew it was possible.
