How to migrate with Claude Code and not die trying
The article describes how the author used Claude Code to streamline and accelerate code migrations that would traditionally be time-consuming and error-prone. By leveraging AI for repetitive tasks like updating imports, adjusting configurations, and enforcing new linting rules, the author reduced migration times from weeks to days. Clear patterns, automated validation, and well-documented project context enabled successful large-scale refactors across multiple projects. The key takeaway is that structured, incremental AI-assisted migrations with measurement and validation yield fast, reliable results.
