- •I just finished putting together my whole website again using AI. I’m really hoping to move away from Adobe Portfolio and have total control over my website. This project is all about seeing what I can do on my own to create something from scratch and get it up and running, thanks to this cool technology. It took me about 16 hours in total. The first four hours were all about copying the exact look and feel of my old website. Then, I spent about 5 more hours building a custom CMS to make sure the website stays online all the time. The last part was testing, tweaking the code, and making little changes to make the whole thing better for the users.
- •If you’re curious, I used Claude (opus 4.5) for planning, defining the scope, determining the tech stack, and creating the initial version. However, I found the quality of the code unsatisfactory, so I switched to Codex, which I found more thorough. It was an intriguing experience.
- •I had a great time using both Claude and Codex. I believe they’re both fantastic tools that can really work well together.
