-
A full Claude Code workflow covering setup, context, permissions, project delivery, and review
-
Project practice for planning features, fixing bugs, testing code, and writing documentation
-
Reusable guidance through rules, memory, custom guidelines, and developer-focused agent skills
AI-assisted development becomes more useful when developers understand how to control context, permissions, models, and reusable instructions. The course introduces Claude Code across command-line and VS Code environments, helping learners choose an appropriate interface and establish the supporting Node.js setup.
The path begins with account setup, installation, and launching Claude Code in different environments. You then explore chat, context handling, model selection, thought effort, permission modes, slash commands, common uses, payment restrictions, model limitations, and data privacy. A guided project provides practice in planning features, revising code, correcting bugs, assigning tests, writing documentation, and conducting an AI code review. Later sections develop rules, memory, guidelines, and agent skills for repeatable work.
Rather than treating AI output as finished code, you will practice directing, checking, and improving it throughout a project. The resulting workflow supports clearer requests, safer permissions, more relevant context, structured quality checks, and reusable project guidance. By the end of this course, you will be able to configure Claude Code, manage its behavior, deliver a small project, and create rules, memory, and skills that support consistent AI-assisted development.
Software developers, programmers, and technical learners seeking a structured introduction to Claude Code will gain the most value. Learners should be comfortable with basic coding concepts, project files, and either a terminal or VS Code. Familiarity with Node.js and GitHub can help with the guided project but is not explicitly required.
