As for Babsland, I introduced Claude Code to it today, and now have support for map elevation, as well as better feedback for selecting and deleting entities in the map.
Nice.

No editing of the asset image editor today (I’ve sort of run out of pressing features to implement).
But it’s now available at… babspixel.com

Added 2 new features to that asset image editor built with Claude Opus 4.5:
- layers
- file load/save in the browser (no backend needed)
This is just mind-blowingly productive.

I wondered “Should I make an image asset editor in Svelte for Babsland?”
I decided to give Claude Code Opus 4.5 a try.
45 minutes later, I have this:
asset-editor-omega.vercel.app
Code: github.com/paulbjensen/...
My mind is completely blown.

Managed to resurrect a 5-years-old codebase for a dashboard application using a combo of ChatGPT 5.2, Claude Opus 4.5, and a massive amount of hurdle-jumping.
But finally got this up and running again.
