Claude set up my whole backend on AWS. That includes a load balancer, web server, email server, three application servers, and a bastion server to connect to their VPN.
It configured everything by writing an AWS Terraform file. Stored all secrets in AWS as well.
Everything I do is on the command line with Claude running in Visual Studio Code. I have a lot of MacOS X / Ubuntu Linux command line experience. Watching Claude work is like watching myself working. It blew my mind the first time it connected through the bastion to individual AWS instances to run scripts and check their logs.
So yeah, the same Claude Code instance that configured the backend is running inside a terminal in VS Code where I’m developing the frontend. Backend is Django/Python. Frontend is Flutter/Dart. Claude set up the WebSocket in Django/Gunicorn and the WebSocket in Flutter.
It also walked me through the generation of keys to configure push notifications on iOS. You have to know something about public/private key security, but that amounts to just generating the files in the right formats (PEM vs P12).
