CrateDigger, a 3D record crate for your Last.fm albums

The full story

CrateDigger is a 3D record shop in the browser. Connect a Last.fm account, or search any album, and your most-played albums stand in a crate you can flip through, lift out and turn over. It also checks where each record is cheapest on vinyl at Dutch and Belgian shops, keeps a price history, and has crates for new releases and critics' picks.

The maker is a 3D motion designer who can't read the code. Claude Code did all of the technical work: a React Three Fiber scene, a spring simulation for the flipping, a FastAPI backend that reads prices and renders pages, and every 3D model, from the crate and sleeves to the shrink-wrap and stickers. It also writes and runs the 127 tests and deploys to staging and production. The maker chose the sources and worked on how flipping should feel on a phone.

It is free with no account.
