I wanted a Kalshi window that looks like Apple Stocks. No coding background. Claude ran the builds, I made the calls, and I never opened Xcode. What I learned shipping Spex Glance from idea to v0.2.2.
Built a multi-station weather display on an e-paper panel with Claude in about an hour, no real Arduino skills required.
Function Health for the bloodwork, HealthEx for my provider records, both wired into one Claude project. Here's the build, and the rule before acting on it.
