I wanted to see how far AI could go in building a complete application, so I tasked Claude with creating a MongoDB admin interface similar to mongo-express. I only did quick code reviews and minor improvements, probably around 95% of the code was written by the AI.<p>For the AI, I used Anthropic Claude Sonnet 3.5. The result is MongoMan (<a href="https://github.com/aientech/mongoman">https://github.com/aientech/mongoman</a>), a modern MongoDB admin interface built with Next.js 15.1.2, shadcn/ui, and TypeScript. It features database stats, collection management, document CRUD operations, and index management. It's also containerized and ready to deploy.<p>The interesting part isn't just that AI has write the code, but how it handled the entire development process: suggesting the tech stack, implementing features incrementally, fixing bugs, and even writing the documentation.<p>However, although the current version works, I'm now maintaining and improving it myself as the project will grow. I guess this shows both the potential and current limitations of AI-assisted development.<p>The code is open source, and I've kept the commit history to show the development process. Curious to hear your thoughts on this approach to development and mongoman itself.<p>Cheers and happy new year!
