Claude Code: Coding

Replace Google Forms with a custom customer app for a one-person business with Claude Code

Maarten runs a one-person business in the Netherlands registering repair crews' vehicles and mechanics for a parking exemption, and for five years it ran on seven Google Forms, one Google Sheet, Stripe and Gmail, with every row checked by hand and every card laminated at the kitchen table. After months stuck in a no-code tool, Maarten installed Claude Code at the start of 2026 and by the end of that day had the things that had been blocking progress for months. The new app checks license plates against the Dutch roads authority's open API and addresses against a national database, generates invoices automatically and lets clients manage their own fleets, with a CSV import for one client with 800 vehicles. Cleaning five years of old data took a week or two. By Maarten's own estimates, operations now take about 4 hours a week, down from about 8.
