AI-Native Development with Claude Code

Design, implement and ship real AI-assisted development workflows using Claude Code

Most developers are still using AI like a smarter chatbot.

But the real shift is not chat-based assistance, it’s AI-native development, where AI becomes part of how you plan, build, review, and operate software day to day.

This workshop shows you how to use Claude Code as a practical engineering partner across real workflows: making scoped changes in codebases, reviewing output critically, building reusable Skills, and connecting development work with the tools that power execution across the business.

You won’t just watch demos. You’ll work hands-on, ship changes, and learn the patterns that make Claude Code genuinely useful in production.

If you want to move from occasional prompting to a more structured, high-leverage way of building software, this workshop is for you.

Who This Workshop Is For

This workshop is ideal for:

• Software developers exploring AI-native development workflows
• Engineers already using AI tools who want a more structured approach
• Technical builders working in real-world codebases, not just greenfield demos
• Tech professionals curious about combining coding workflows with higher-level productivity systems

It’s especially valuable for people who want to go beyond prompts and learn how to make AI a repeatable part of their workflow.

What You'll Learn

By the end of this workshop, you will understand how to:

• Use Claude Code more effectively as part of your real development workflow
• Understand how Claude Code differs from standard chat-based AI tools
• Apply the Plan → Execute → Review approach to ship work more reliably
• Make changes confidently in an existing codebase
• Use Claude Code for scoped implementation, testing, and refactoring tasks
• Review AI-generated output with better judgment and stronger engineering discipline
• Create and use Skills to make recurring workflows more reusable
• Identify where Claude Code can support both technical work and adjacent operational tasks
• Take AI from “interesting helper” to a meaningful part of how you build
