Reviewing AI generated code
In the previous lesson we used Claude to one-shot a Habit Tracker application. Here, I'll take a look at the code and give me first impressions. They were good.
Ensure that you're using git to track your changes. I start by git committing all the changes so far. You want to make sure you git commit and start with a clean branch before using claude.
I used Claude Code to generate a summary of the files at this point:
please summarize the habit tracker app here, describing both features and how it works technically
Output:
A Next.js habit tracking app that helps users track daily, weekly, or monthly habits. The app lets users create habits, mark them as complete, track streaks, and delete habits.
Features:
Create habits with name, description, and frequency
Track completion status with visual indicators
Calculate and display streak counts
Toggle habit completion for any day
Delete unwanted habits
Technical implementation:
Built with Next.js 15+ App Router
React client components with useState/useEffect hooks
TypeScript for type safety
In-memory data storage (mock implementation)
Modular component architecture (HabitForm, HabitList, HabitItem)
CSS modules for component styling
Streak calculation logic for tracking consistency
