Learning objectives
- Place Code in the product line: Chat, Projects, Cowork, Code
- Set up Code with a GitHub account and ship a live website from a prompt
- Apply the five prompting habits: screenshots in, end result not steps, point to files, one thing at a time, screenshot bugs
- Create a CLAUDE.md memory file so projects survive between sessions
- Manage the known weaknesses: usage burn, no code review, loops, generic design taste

You will learn how to ship websites, dashboards, and prototypes with Claude Code without writing or reading code. End state is one live page on the internet, built by you in session, plus a CLAUDE.md memory file so the project survives between sessions. After this module you can brief Claude Code like a project manager, iterate with screenshots, test like a user instead of reviewing code, and produce specs a developer can take to production.
