Build a 3D city housing simulator with Claude Code with zero coding

A city planner with zero programming experience used Claude and Claude Code to develop a free web-based 3D Chicago housing crisis simulator. Claude wrote all the code, data scripts, test screenshots, and deployment configurations, while the user provided domain expertise, policies, and design decisions.

Steps

  1. 1Start using the Artifacts feature in the Claude App, and switch to Claude Code as the project grows.
  2. 2Have Claude write Python scripts to process open urban footprint, street, and zoning maps into small, block-by-block files, and run the scripts locally to process the data.
  3. 3Describe requirements in natural language, have Claude build a 3D map game using HTML and deck.gl, and provide feedback on the generated interface without manually editing any code.
  4. 4Ask Claude to find data sources and fact-check about 50 data points, provide three visual style sketches, and select one.
  5. 5Have Claude capture mobile and desktop screenshots in a headless browser to catch layout bugs.
  6. 6Have Claude set up a GitHub repository, Cloudflare hosting, and a backend for an anonymous scenario gallery, and deploy the website by pushing to GitHub.

Ideas for Chinese platforms

Operators can reference this pattern to combine industry expertise with AI to quickly build custom H5 and web simulators with zero coding for user engagement, knowledge popularization, or brand promotion, and share them on social platforms to build a personal brand.
