Learning to Use Claude Code on a Big Project | AI-Assisted Backend Development in C++

In this video, I put Claude Code to the test inside a real-world, large-scale C++ repository: an HR service backend. The objective is to design and implement a messenger backend module integrated directly into an existing production-style codebase.

This is not a toy example or greenfield demo. Instead, I simulate a realistic engineering workflow:

Writing a detailed, structured prompt for Claude
Letting Claude generate an implementation plan
Running Claude Code against a complex C++ backend repository
Reviewing the generated backend logic and simple UI
Critically evaluating architecture, code quality, maintainability, and integration risks

If you’re interested in AI coding agents, LLM-assisted programming, backend development in C++, system design, or evaluating tools like Claude in real engineering environments, this deep dive will give you a practical perspective.
