Ship a Next.js App with Claude Code
Workshop
Join us for a hands-on workshop built for developers who want to move from idea to working software faster, using Claude Code, Anthropic's agentic coding tool. Unlike a typical autocomplete-style assistant, Claude Code lives in your terminal, IDE, or desktop app, reads and understands your entire codebase, and can take direct action: editing files, running commands, and handling git workflows, all through natural language.
In this workshop, you'll initialize a Next.js project from scratch and use Claude Code to plan, build, and iterate on a real, working application. You'll set up a `CLAUDE.md` file to give Claude persistent project context and conventions, so you're not repeating yourself in every prompt, and use Plan Mode to review an agent's approach before it touches any code, keeping you in control of multi-step changes. Along the way, you'll write effective prompts, delegate multi-step coding tasks, and let Claude Code handle the repetitive work of scaffolding, wiring up components, and debugging, so you can focus on product decisions and architecture instead of boilerplate.
By the end of the session, you'll have shipped a functioning Next.js application and gained a practical workflow for using Claude Code on your own projects, whether you're prototyping quickly or working within an existing codebase.
No prior experience with Claude Code is required. Some familiarity with React or Next.js is helpful but not essential; we'll cover what you need to know as we go.
