AI Experiment – PA Skateparks
I run paskateparks.com, the most comprehensive directory of skateparks in Pennsylvania. Previously, it was a WordPress site hosted on WP Engine. I've recently overhauled it as a React.js app using Claude Code.
It's been an eye opening experience, moving fast with AI while types, tests, and Storybook keep the work honest.
I'm currently building the admin CMS and user auth system that will transform the static directory into a community. Next up will be the front-end theme.
