What I have done with Claude Code in the last 60 days being a non tech person
I am a non tech person. Currently working as Product Marketing in a Series B startup.
I am a Non Tech person.
What I have built:-
- Custom wordpress theme live on - https://thelatexlab.com, page speed score is 95+.
- Project Tracking micro SaaS using Next.js, Supabase, Vercel, Posthog, Google Auth - used by 45 Users
-
- Made Two more custom wordpress theme for other businessess.
- Made $4K in last 2 months.
I am just mind blown if a non tech person like me can do this much then what's the ceiling for people who are Technical.
And what it will be in next 1-2 years.
Excited and scared both.
- agcat 3mo agoThat's amazing. Are you also building workflows, products that could be useful at your work?
- sahiltll 3mo agoForgot to add - built a mobile app also - that never went public. Because I have no bandwidth after 2 side hustle and full time job. Fyi - I used to get scared while seeing terminal interface 3 months back.
- bxk76 3mo agoIts not above being "Technical" but what kind of business probs you have experience with/deal with day to day. That decides what ceilings are. If you spend your whole day working on cockpit software or a telco stack or power plant scada system market of who you sell your stuff too/what problems you are exposed to is niche.
- sahiltll 3mo agodomain expertise is always necessary
- coldtea 3mo ago>then what's the ceiling for people who are Technical. The fact that everybody else will be doing the same, and thus making any advantage of using AI moot.
- sahiltll 3mo agoyessss
- greenoracle9 3mo agothe next step should be unifying ai + human. but how? i don't know.
- sahiltll 3mo agoIn what sense?
- xxwink 3mo agoHow do you handle code versioning, Deployment and Infrastructure as a non technical person ?
- BjoernKW 3mo agoEngineers are prone to overcomplicating matters. Pieter Levels famously runs Nomad List as vanilla PHP application on a single Linux server, while people keeps insisting you need a fault-tolerant, multi-region cloud setup and the modern stack-du-jour to provide such an application.
- sahiltll 3mo agoWhile building I also create documentation in parallel. and md file in parallel also. like Planning md - will have initial plan, goal, research, overview, tech stack. Architecture md - will have all the architecture decision with reasons why we chose that. each phase will have a separate documentation all qa 1,2,3 will have md files noted everything. deployement md, etc I initally built these because - I can just change claude code to codex or new session anytime and giving access to the folder and it reads everything and can get updated on the current status.
- Gooblebrai 3mo ago> I am just mind blown if a non tech person like me can do this much then what's the ceiling for people who are Technical Slight irrelevant because when it comes to business, the most important part is finding customers and selling to them. Tech people focus too much on product development and neglect sales.
- sahiltll 3mo agoI agree. but there is another aspect of this. I am thinking in terms of productivity increase of a tech person compared to before AI.
- devdoc83 3mo agoThis resonates. Built ZeroDrop in 2 days, spent 2 weeks on distribution and hit every wall — HN karma, Reddit ban, Stripe India restriction. The building part was the easy part. The distribution not so much.
- Tinfoilpigeons 3mo agoReally really impressive work. I love the branding on thelatexlab
- sahiltll 3mo agoThanks a lot for the compliments. You mentioned that you liked TheLaTeXLab branding - specifically what do you like? I mean is it logo or our positioning?

- leros 3mo agoHow have you made money?
- sahiltll 3mo agoBy providing word to latex conversion service via https://thelatexlab.com/ https://thelatexlab.com/ and also by getting paid for building custom theme for the other two businesses.
