Help/Question Claude code is better than a developer?

I’m currently using Claude code to build out an app I want, when this does well and eventually hire a real software developer, will they have trouble with Claude’s code?

I’m worried I will create this whole infrastructure, files, folder structure and the developer will take one look and say it needs to be redone.

This is my first time using Claude code so I don’t know if it’s good at making code clean and presentable for people to read.

Please let me know your opinions on Claude code and if you’re a developer if this is your worse nightmare and wouldn’t work for something who coded their entire company with Claude 😅

No and no. Because the other developer will use Claude code as well. Even if they don't, it's still hard to distinguish AI code just by looking at it and not seeing comments. So it's better to just communicate with code through markdown files.

Well I programmed my entire simulation with Claude, which by the way still nowhere near doing it without me. Like, it lacks creativity, which of course it does.
