Next public run: . View session fees and location.
Build an application from instructions to a working project
Choose this course if you are a non-technical professional or entrepreneur who wants to prototype an idea, or a marketer or designer who needs a custom tool. Prior knowledge of programming syntax is not the starting point.
The nine modules move from Claude Code installation and first prompts to multi-file projects, debugging, project instructions in CLAUDE.md and refactoring. The final module is a capstone project that you build, test and present.
Compare your options: The AI Productivity Playbook. Choose the one-day AI course when your goal is to improve routine business work with existing AI tools.

Vibe Coding and Claude Code course outline
Explore 9 course outline sections. Expand a section to see the topics.
01 · Introduction to Vibe Coding
- What is Vibe Coding? Coding by describing intent in natural language
- How AI-assisted coding has evolved: autocomplete -> chat copilots -> agentic coding
- Where vibe coding shines and when traditional coding is still needed
- Live demo: building a simple web app from plain English descriptions
Practical exercise: Explore the vibe coding paradigm through guided demonstrations.
02 · Installing & Configuring Claude Code
- Current system requirements and supported operating systems
- Step-by-step installation via npm
- Authentication: API keys vs. Claude Pro/Max subscription
- Navigating the CLI interface and essential commands
- Understanding how Claude Code sees your project files
Practical exercise: Install and configure Claude Code on your development machine.
Before the course, check Claude Code’s current setup and account requirements.
03 · Your First Prompts: Talking to Code
- Anatomy of a good vibe coding prompt
- Describing what you want vs. how to build it
- Starting simple: single-file scripts and utilities
- The feedback loop: prompt -> review -> refine -> accept
- Reading Claude Code’s output: understanding diffs and file creation
Practical exercise: Write your first series of prompts to generate working scripts.
04 · Building Simple Projects from Scratch
- Scaffolding a new project: structure, configs and dependencies
- Building a static website with HTML, CSS and JavaScript
- Building a simple REST API with Express or Flask
- Working across multiple files: how Claude Code manages context
- Version control basics: committing before every big prompt
Practical exercise: Build a complete web project from scratch using only natural language.
05 · Understanding & Navigating Existing Code
- Using Claude Code to explore and explain unfamiliar codebases
- Asking the right questions about functions, data flow and dependencies
- Tracing execution paths and mapping dependencies
- Generating documentation for existing code
Practical exercise: Explore and document an unfamiliar codebase using Claude Code.
06 · Prompt Engineering for Better Results
- The Prompt Hierarchy: intent -> constraints -> examples -> iteration
- Being specific vs. leaving room for Claude’s judgment
- Providing context: tech stack, coding style and project conventions
- Anti-patterns: vague prompts, over-specification and ignoring suggestions
Practical exercise: Refine prompts iteratively to achieve precise code generation results.
07 · Debugging with Vibes
- Describing bugs in natural language: symptoms, expected behaviour and context
- Letting Claude Code read error messages, stack traces and logs
- Step-by-step guided debugging vs. autonomous fixing
- When to give Claude more context vs. when to narrow the scope
Practical exercise: Debug a set of broken applications using only natural language descriptions.
08 · CLAUDE.md & Refactoring
- What is CLAUDE.md and why it matters for consistent results
- Using /init to auto-generate a starter CLAUDE.md
- Using Claude Code to clean up messy code
- Extracting functions, renaming variables and simplifying logic
Practical exercise: Create a CLAUDE.md file and refactor a messy codebase.
09 · Build & Present
- Participants choose and build a small project using all skills learned
- Options: to-do app, weather dashboard, CLI tool, or simple blog engine
- Brief show-and-tell: share what you built and what prompts worked
Who it's for
Non-technical professionals, entrepreneurs prototyping ideas, marketers and designers who need custom tools, and anyone curious about building software without learning syntax.
Optional self-study preview
Write a small app brief before you code
Explore the skill with this sample brief, then note what you would like to practise with the trainer.
Practice brief: Imagine a simple personal task board with a title and a status for each task. Start with fictional tasks and a local prototype so you can concentrate on describing and checking the behaviour.
- Write three things the app must do: add a task, change its status and show the current list. Decide what should happen when the title is empty.
- Turn each behaviour into a checkable example, including one mistake a user might make. State whether you expect tasks to remain after a reload.
- If you try the brief in your coding tool, build one behaviour at a time and check it. Describe a failure by what you did, what happened and what you expected.
Check your result: Clear requirements and repeatable checks make conversational debugging more useful. The course develops this workflow through setup, application building, project instructions and a capstone project.
