Wading Into Claude Code

Workshop: Wading into Claude Code

A hands-on, 2-hour workshop where attendees learn to use Claude Code -- Anthropic's AI coding agent -- without any programming background. This is not a lecture. It's live demos, real tools, and real results you can take home the same day.

Live demos

• Full-site SEO audit -- Claude Code runs 7 parallel agents to audit a real website's performance, accessibility, and search visibility. The kind of report agencies charge $5K+ for, done in minutes.
• Legal research and court filing -- Using free open-source tools, Claude Code finds recent case law, fills out official court PDFs, and assembles a small claims filing from start to finish.
• Website cloning and deployment -- Build a branded, fully functional website from a single prompt and deploy it live -- no WordPress, no Webflow, no monthly subscription.
• Scripts and automations -- Create reusable automations (email monitoring, job board scanning, scheduled tasks) that run without burning AI tokens after they're built.

What attendees will learn

• How to set up Claude Code and organize sessions for focused, efficient work
• Plan Mode, hard rules, and safety guardrails that prevent costly mistakes
• How to find and evaluate open-source tools (GitHub repos, MCP servers) safely
• The difference between Chat AI, Claude Cowork, and Claude Code -- and when to use each
• How to move from basic prompting to orchestrating parallel agents

Who it's for

Founders, marketers, solopreneurs, freelancers, and curious professionals who want to use AI beyond chatbots. No coding background required. Attendees with laptops can follow along live.
