Every kind of project is faster with AI, because it writes the code faster.
Then you have to QA it for ages to discover the bugs it wrote, but the initial perception of speed never leaves you.
I think I'm overall slower with AI, but I could be faster if I had it write simple functions that I could review one by one, and have the AI compose them the way I wanted. Unfortunately, I'm too lazy to be faster.
With web apps playwright-mcp[0] is essential IMO. It lets the AI Agent check its own work before claiming it's done.
With that it can see any errors in the console, click through the UI and take screenshots to analyse how it looks giving it an independent feedback loop.
