I'm in the same boat of some of the other commenters using Claude Code but I have found it atleast a 2X in routine backend API development. Most updates to our existing APIs would be on the order of "add one more partner integration following the same interface here and add tests with the new response data". So it is pretty easy to give it to claude code, tell them where to put the new code, tell it how to test, and let it iterate on the tests. So something that may have taken a full afternoon or more to get done gets done much faster and often with a lot more test coverage.
