I built mdc, a lightweight desktop Markdown viewer with auto-generated table of contents, in just 2 days using Claude Code.What it does: - Clean, responsive Markdown rendering - Automatically generates table of contents from document headers - Simple file selection interface - Built with Tauri (React + Rust)Claude Code experience: What impressed me most was how Claude Code handled the full-stack development. It took only 2 days from starting the project to release. I have bunch of experience of TypeScript/React, but nothing of Tauri/Rust. It seemed Claude isn't good at Tauri either but "Think deeply" prompt worked in terms of solving issues. The development flow was remarkably fast: - Day 1: All the app features - Day 2: Release automation with github actionsInstallation: brew tap zoetin45/tap brew install mdc Or grab binaries from: https://github.com/zoetin45/mdc Tech stack: Tauri + React + TypeScript + Tailwind CSSI'm curious about others' experiences with AI-assisted development - has anyone else tried building desktop apps this way?Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44280977Points: 1# Comments: 0
