Claude Code: Building Faster with AI – From Prototype to Production

Coding with AI agents from the CLI, using Anthropic’s Claude Code. Build an online radio station, ready for production!

Also available on Udemy

AI is changing how software is built — and if you’re not learning how to work with AI coding assistants, you’re falling behind.

In this hands-on, project-based course, you’ll master Anthropic’s Claude Code, an advanced AI coding assistant that runs directly from the command line (CLI). Guided by Frank Kane, former senior engineer and senior manager at Amazon — and instructor to over one million learners worldwide — you’ll learn how to collaborate with Claude Code to massively boost your productivity while maintaining professional development standards.

Together, we’ll build a complete online radio station web app from scratch — starting with fast, AI-assisted “vibe coding” to get a working prototype up and running in minutes. Then we’ll take it further — all the way to production.

You’ll learn how to use Claude Code to:

• Build and refactor a real full-stack web application through conversational prompts
• Implement unit tests, security scans, and continuous integration (CI)
• Optimize site speed and responsiveness for production environments
• Translate a wireframe and style guide into a professional UI/UX
• Integrate with GitHub for effective version control and collaboration
• Automate workflows with Claude-powered GitHub Actions
  • Automatically review pull requests using AI
  • Close GitHub issues by simply tagging @claude with instructions

This isn’t just a playground for AI tools — it’s a realistic journey through a full development lifecycle. You’ll experience the limitations of AI assistants firsthand, and learn how your human insight is essential in steering Claude toward clean, secure, and maintainable code.

Why this course matters:

Companies are actively expecting developers to incorporate AI tools into their workflows. Claude Code represents the next evolution in developer productivity, and understanding how to wield it effectively will give you a serious edge in the job market.

By the end of this course, you’ll walk away with:

• A deployable, professional-grade web app
• Practical experience pairing with a command-line AI agent
• Confidence to bring Claude Code into your real-world projects
