I spent three days trying to develop a plugin using Claude 4.6, but it was still too difficult. Involved content: Database UI Admin backend Routing Logical functions and components, etc. Overall feeling: The code generation ability is strong, but the standardization and accumulated experience are insufficient. During these three days, I spent most of my time correcting syntax and some conventional guideline errors, even regenerating the entire project. I don't understand code at all, and when encountering problems, I can't even provide effective prompts. Regarding code structure/naming/development style, I can only obediently follow the AI's lead. The AI's performance is very average, it's difficult to fix errors, and it seems there isn't yet a specific guide for AI...
