What You'll Learn

🤖

Claude Code vs Chat

When to use Claude in the IDE, Claude Code in the terminal, and plain chat — and when to reject or redirect the model

📂

Codebase-Aware Workflows

Multi-file edits, project context and scoped changes — patterns that work on real repos, not toy snippets

🧪

Test-First with Claude

Describe behaviour in plain English, generate tests first, then implement until green — with human review at every step

🔧

Refactor & Explain

Safe refactors, diff review, docstrings and PR-ready summaries — high-value output with clear prompts

🛡️

Quality & Safety

Hallucinated APIs, secrets in prompts, over-generation and context limits — team rules that stick

📋

Your Claude Playbook

Leave with a personal 7-day plan and prompt cheat sheet — part of the Coding Assistants series alongside Copilot

0:00–0:45 · Foundations

Claude Code setup, how agentic coding differs from autocomplete, core workflows and a quick fix on the starter repo

0:45–1:05 · Lab 1

Add a feature test-first — scoped multi-file changes with Claude Code and IDE review

1:05–1:15 · Break

Stretch and Q&A

1:15–1:30 · Quality & Safety

Review diffs, secrets, context windows and team rules for agent-generated code

1:30–1:50 · Lab 2

1:50–2:00 · Wrap-Up

Playbook, next steps and how Claude fits alongside Copilot and Cursor
