Claude Code training
Learn to work with Claude Code, anthropic's autonomous coding CLI. From fundamental operation to advanced agent workflows and best practices. Unlock the full potential of AI-assisted development with the most powerful coding agent available.
What is Claude Code?
Claude Code is the autonomous coding CLI developed by anthropic, the makers of Claude. Unlike traditional AI assistants that make suggestions in your editor, Claude Code is a full-fledged agent that independently navigates your codebase, reads and writes files, executes commands and handles complex programming tasks from start to finish. It's like having an experienced developer sitting next to you who understands your entire project.
What sets Claude Code apart from other AI tools is its agentic nature. Where Cursor or Copilot reactively make suggestions based on what you type, Claude Code proactively takes steps to execute your task. It plans an approach, navigates through files, writes code, runs tests and iterates on the result. You give a task and Claude Code executes it autonomously, while you can intervene or steer at any moment.
At Breathbase we use Claude Code daily for complex development tasks. From building complete features to refactoring large codebases, Claude Code significantly increases our productivity. We share this practical experience in our training, so you learn how to use Claude Code effectively and safely in your own development workflow. You get not only technical knowledge, but also the workflows and best practices we have developed through daily use.
