My Simple Claude Code Workflow To Build Apps Fast (No Skills, Agents, or Computer Use)

AI coding has gotten way more complicated than it needs to be. In this video, I break down my simple AI coding workflow, why I think a lot of modern AI coding setups are over-engineered, and how I use AI to build apps fast as a solo developer. If you’ve been overwhelmed by AI agents, sub-agents, skills, swarms, browser automation, and all the other complex AI coding workflows floating around online, this is my honest take on what actually works. I walk through the exact AI workflow I use inside Claude Code and Conductor, including how I plan features phase by phase, keep pull requests small, review code more effectively, and update my project documentation so future AI coding sessions have better context. Instead of trying to build a fully autonomous AI software engineer, I use AI as a force multiplier for my own output and stay involved in the loop for anything that actually matters. ​ This is the same simple AI coding workflow I’ve used while building YBI as a solo developer, scaling the product to roughly $8K a month in revenue and over 25,000 users. My goal with this video is to show that you do not need an insanely complicated AI coding setup to ship real product features, write better code, and move faster as an indie hacker or builder. If you’re interested in AI coding, Claude Code, developer productivity, solo developer workflows, building apps with AI, or how to create your own practical AI coding system without overcomplicating everything, this video should help. #AICoding #ClaudeCode #solodev Check Out Yorby, the social media marketing tool for startups: https://www.yorby.ai?utm_source=yatb-yt Want to work with me 1:1?
