Agents / tools
Claude Code, Next.js, Vercel, Neon Postgres, Google Calendar
She started with a Next.js application on Vercel backed by Neon Postgres, then developed the weekly view, habit tracker, and longer-term planning features through successive conversations. Claude Code added autosaving and a Google Calendar authorization flow that fetches events and refreshes expired tokens.
How it went
She reports getting a working application skeleton from the initial prompt and refining the dashboard feature by feature over several days.
Worth knowing
The Calendar integration required Google developer-console configuration, an exactly matching redirect URL, and settings for a long-lived token.
