The full story

The founder of Eventship, a platform for building in-person communities around events, was told a rebuild would take four or five engineers about six months. He did it alone in five weeks with Claude Code. His tips: write good documentation of what you want, keep each session focused on one area, and ask Claude to write a plan and tests before code.

An independent community project. Not affiliated with Anthropic.

What this is. Real projects where people used Claude to build, fix, port, revive or take apart something, from jailbroken Kindles to rebuilt DOS games, plus the times it went badly wrong. Every build links to where it was shared, and every source is listed here.

How far to trust it. We summarise what people reported and say what each build rests on: a full write-up with code, a short post, or a passing comment. We haven't tested them ourselves. Photos are shown from the original sources with credit. Only modify hardware you own, and back up first.
