Helping people write code again

Read Original

The article discusses how LLM-powered AI coding tools (like Claude Code) are helping former developers, especially those who moved to management or have limited time, to write code again. It argues that effective use of these tools relies on management skills like clear communication, goal-setting, and task division, making coding accessible in short timeframes.
