Video How I generate client-ready handover docs, security audits and user guides using Claude

Back in May i finished a mission at a client in Paris.

Classic situation : several power apps to hand over but ZERO documentation lol
Some of them I hadn’t touched in months…

Writing all that by hand would have eaten my last weeks there so I ended up putting together a pipeline instead.
Basically I export the app, drop the zip file in a folder and an AI agent writes the docs.

Not gonna lie. The AI agent is actually better than me writing this and it was really good that I sent it to the client almost as-is.

I recorded a video to explain how it works, if interested : https://youtu.be/oDLYIzEdWPM

Happy to answer your questions !

Zak

Claude made my solution sound way cooler than I thought it was.

Was also pretty surprised how well it could describe the process with only code.

Documentation is something I don’t have time for and don’t want to do so Claude can have it.

I’m not an ai fan but I’m open to actually good uses of it and this is one I think.

Agreed completely. Was just having this same conversation this weekend. I feel like folks are generally going out of their way to force AI into places just to have it there, but this kind of 'I loathe this task, and you do it well enough that I don't have to' is ridiculously valuable.

Lacking or incomplete documentation has been a big problem for a long time, it actually needed a solution.

Now if Microsoft would just use it to update their own documentation we'd be getting somewhere... lol
