Analysis Claude API Nuanced skill matching and gap identification
Development Claude Code Agentic coding assistant for rapid prototyping

Built with Claude Code: Used Claude Code as my coding partner to scaffold the React app, iterate on prompt design, and debug API integration. What would have taken a weekend took an afternoon. Claude Code handled boilerplate while I focused on the core matching logic and UX decisions.

What I Learned

  • 💡 I iterated on the rules for scoring. It helped to ask Claude to identify all scenarios and edge cases, then refine the scoring logic for each one.
  • 💡 Documenting product requirements and constraints upfront (in CLAUDE.md) meant less back-and-forth and more consistent implementation across iterations.
