Anyone that says “you can’t build production apps” in Claude Code is either lying to themselves to justify their job security or is being willfully ignorant. We need to stop calling it “vibe coding.” That was useful 6 months ago. It’s coding… whether you like it or not. I get it, you’re not going to Claude Code your way to Anduril or Palantir or anything that requires deep systems engineering. But let’s be honest about what most of the internet actually is…. money producing web applications wrapped around a combination of APIs. That’s 90% of the software that generates 90% of the revenue on the internet. All the best engineers I know rarely write any code anymore, but it’s not “vibe coding” when they use cc for some reason. The resistance to this isn’t technical. It’s psychological. Admitting that Claude Code can build production software means admitting that the barrier to building software is over. Your once exclusive access just got democratized.
