Iterate on app projects while Claude handles change requests
The poster has Claude make change requests on ongoing projects, including a video editor, a graphic adventure game engine and a text editor, while testing in the meantime.
Done withClaude
- What they did
- The poster uses Claude as part of an ongoing app-iteration loop: while Claude is processing a previous batch of change requests, they go back through the app to spot more improvements and prepare the next prompt. In parallel, they switch to other Claude-assisted projects, specifically mentioning a video editor, a graphic adventure game engine, and a text editor, then return with another round of requests.
- How it went
- The source describes a workflow habit rather than a measured result, so it gives no metrics or finished-project outcomes. It does show the setup works well enough for the poster to keep several projects moving at once while Claude is busy.
- Worth knowing
- The main catch is that this depends on having enough parallel work to queue up; the poster fills Claude's wait time by reviewing the current app and hopping to other projects.
