I'm a Laravel dev and just shipped a native app on iOS and Android (SwiftUI + Compose), written almost entirely by Claude Code.
What mattered more than prompting:
1. Let the grill-with-docs skill interrogate me first: 5 ADRs before launch
2. CLAUDE.md with hard rules: read-only media APIs, no INTERNET permission
3. SDD: one platform-neutral spec with numbered acceptance criteria, built twice
The app is a photo viewer for toddlers:
picturebook-app.com
picturebook-app.comPicture Book — Photo App for KidsPicture Book shows your child exactly the photo album you choose — your family photos and videos instead of the YouTube pull. Offline, no account, no ads.
