In my experience there is a big difference between front-end and back-end stuff (i.e., formulaic/templated code and code that needs to solve an actual problem). LLMs breeze through the former, typically get stuck in the latter because of context and breadth limitations.
That doesn’t mean you can’t churn out all the surface accoutrements of an app (and some of the dull back-end stuff like user databases, etc.) faster—-but it is very far from replacing someone with system design skills in the long run.
