“6 years work in 6 days”: The amazing Claude Code effect

Claude Code has completely transformed the software development ecosystem.

People are building faster than they ever thought possible with this incredible tool.

This is wild — this is the Claude Code effect:

This is the difference that these incredible AI tools bring to your workflow.

Like they said it’s not perfect, but there’s no doubt of the massive time and effort savings they and many other devs like me have been getting from tools like Claude Code.

You are completely reclaiming so much of the time you once used to manually create files and type every single character.

It’s amazing just how much faster and enjoyable development has been for me ever since these agentic tools come onto the scene.

And we’re certainly not just talking coding — what of all those chores that seem like they won’t take much time — but slowly eat into your day — your life?

Claude Code has a stunning feature that let’s you put all these admin tasks into a queue — where they get run all at the same time.

Look at this — we can send prompts to Claude Code — without having to wait for the results:

You can make several changes to various parts of the codebase — all at once:

You literally have your very own team of developers — building much faster than any one human ever could.

Oh, and they talked about committing code? Let’s talk about committing code.

Committing your changes to Git is so effortless now.

One challenge many developers have is writing high-quality Git commit messages.

But now with tools like Claude Code — you can easily ask an AI agent to make commits on your behalf.

The Claude Code CLI has access to all your CLI commands — it will analyze all the changes you made and come with a precise commit message.

IDEs like Windsurf and VS Code even have a feature that let’s you do this directly from their UI.

It’s nice and I do use them from time to time.

With agentic tools like Claude Code you can get even fancier:

You can ask the agent to generate a series of commits based on all the unrelated changes you may have made.

You know one great advice on Git committing is to always make atomic commits — commit on a single change.

But sometimes in the real-life coding it’s easy to make changes all over the place — and then who has the time or energy to go through all those changes one by one to separate them and commit them individually?

It’s always easier to just commit everything — maybe with some horribly vague commit message like “Update” or “Misc”.

But now with Claude Code this problem disappears instantly.

It just intelligently analyzes all the changes and automatically divides them into logically coherent parts — and then it makes commits each change with a high-quality message.

It’s an incredible tool that every developer needs to start taking advantage of.
