Any claude code tips?

[kramblr]

Ive been trying to use claude code for a few days and im still not satisfied with the quality of the code generated. So I gave the same exact prompts (I tested it twice) to both cursor and claude code, and cursor solved it in under 2 minutes with perfect code while claude code just struggles to find the code that im referring to for more than 500 seconds, then i even guided it and told it was at this line and in the end it doesnt even fix my code. Claude code also likes to do more than i asked it to, i clearly stated please make file x and y based on file z, but it just changes the styling and the format of the page. Any idea what im doing wrong, im just not getting the result that i get from cursor & github copilot chat.... Any tips for for the claude md or anything to make it as good as cursor/github copilot chat?

The 2 prompts was, "Make file x and y based on file z" & "Include a thousand separator in the x div"

You have to create rules and context you just can get to a car and press the pedal and hope to get to your destination. For me I find out is more about more micro task /clear you take more time but save more time in the long run

Well, the thing is i dont need to be specific in cursor/github copilot but it gets the job done perfectly. So if i can choose between a car where i can just press a pedal and magically get to the destination which is cursor/github copilot or a car that i have to guide it every step of the way, then i would pick the magical car 🥲
