Developer Creates 3D GitHub City Visualization Using Claude Code in One Day
A developer created Git City, a 3D visualization where every GitHub user becomes a pixel art building. The project was built 100% with Claude Code in VS Code, with no manual coding, and the first version was completed in one day.
Project Details
The visualization maps GitHub activity to building characteristics:
- More commits = taller building
- More repositories = wider base
- Lit windows indicate recent activity
The project currently includes almost 10,000 developers in the city and is free to try at thegitcity.com.
Development Process
The developer used Claude Code exclusively for both coding and UX/design decisions. The workflow involved running 2-3 terminals simultaneously, with some for planning and some for coding, maintaining constant activity. After the initial one-day build, the developer has been shipping daily updates using Claude Code for a week.
Technical Stack
