Boris Cherny on Trying to Get Claude Code to Rewrite the Claude App

First seen · 8/3/2026, 08:22 AMLatest activity · 8/3/2026, 08:22 AM

Daring Fireball links to Boris Cherny’s account of trying to use Claude Code to rewrite the Claude app. The associated Hacker News thread had 69 points and 14 comments at the captured snapshot. The supplied metadata does not describe the rewrite’s scope, completion level, architecture, code quality, human intervention, or measured results. This is therefore best treated as a timely practitioner signal about agentic coding ambitions, not as validated evidence that an AI coding agent can autonomously rebuild a production application.
