If you know how to write it manually, then do it.

In my experience, Claude Code is great at making a first-pass at a project, but once you start asking it to make changes, it explodes. A bug fix that should only be 2 lines turns into adding 3 functions totaling 100 lines.

Something as simple as "make the button blue" should be done manually.
