Project Background

Origin Story

This project started as a vibe coding experiment — built almost entirely through conversational AI prompting with Claude Code. The specifications, architecture, domain models, backend, frontend, Helm charts, and tests were all developed in this style. What began as an exploration of AI-assisted development grew into a fully functional agricultural management platform.
