A non-technical founder shares their experience rebuilding their startup's website using Claude Code and AI coding agents. The process took weeks instead of months, allowing them to implement high-fidelity designs from Figma without learning to code from scratch. The workflow involved using VS Code, Claude Code CLI, GitHub CLI, and Figma's MCP server, following standard development practices like branching, pull requests, and code reviews. While powerful, the experience revealed several challenges including Claude's inconsistent response quality, file management issues with the Figma integration, and the need for constant human oversight to prevent the AI from making unrelated changes.
