About This Course
Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic coding tool that lives in your terminal. Unlike autocomplete-style AI assistants, Claude Code understands your entire codebase, executes commands, manages files, and orchestrates complex multi-step workflows — all through natural language conversation.
This course takes you from zero to mastery across 24 hands-on lessons. You'll learn every feature, from basic installation through advanced agent teams and CI/CD automation, with real exercises at every step.
What You'll Learn
- Foundations — What agentic coding is, how to install and authenticate, navigate the CLI, and understand how Claude reads your codebase
- Daily Workflows — Write features, edit code safely, debug issues, refactor with confidence, and generate tests
- Prompt Mastery — Engineer effective prompts, leverage extended thinking, and manage your context window
- Configuration — Master CLAUDE.md memory files, permissions, security settings, and Git workflows
- Extensibility — Connect external tools via MCP servers, create hooks, build reusable skills, and orchestrate subagents
- Professional Use — Integrate Claude Code into CI/CD pipelines, build plugins, and execute full projects end-to-end
Who This Course Is For
This course is for any developer who wants to leverage agentic AI in their daily workflow. Whether you're a frontend developer, backend engineer, DevOps specialist, or full-stack developer — if you write code and use a terminal, Claude Code will transform how you work.
No prior AI experience is needed. You should be comfortable with basic command-line usage, Git, and at least one programming language.
