Course 2 · build a real app with Claude Code
App Building with Claude.
One real app, yours, built with Claude Code and live for anyone to use: a website at your own address, or a phone app in the stores. You steer and check the work; you do not write the code.
Five things that will feel natural.
- Tell a web app from a phone app, and know what each really costsWeb or phone
- Set Claude Code up to build safely, with the right model and planSetup
- Hand Claude Code one prompt that drives the whole buildOne prompt
- Ship a real website at your own address, checked by youWeb
- Or ship a phone app to the App Store or Google PlayPhone
Everything the course covers, in plain words.
Short reads get you set up and choosing between a website and a phone app. Then Claude Code builds yours with you from a single prompt, checking each step. Nothing is ever locked.
Web app or phone app
What each one really costs, what the stores require, and which fits what you want to make.
Which Claude, which mode, which plan
Which model to build with, how much to let it run on its own, and why Claude Max is the plan this course assumes.
The handful of words you need
Markdown, repo, database, deploy: the terms you will hear, explained once in plain English.
Add-ons: MCPs and plugins
The pieces that let Claude Code reach your other services, and when to say yes to one.
The rules file
A CLAUDE.md and an AGENTS.md that keep Claude Code building the way you want, every session.
Your app, built
Pick web or phone, hand Claude Code one prompt, and check each step until it is live at your address or in the stores.
One price, yours for good.
- Every lesson, kept current as Claude changes
- One prompt that drives the whole build in Claude Code, plus the rules file it follows
- The full starting prompt for your track, web or native, yours to keep
- Progress that follows you: phone, tablet, laptop, or any other device
We recommend getting the Claude Max plan (~$100/mo, paid to Anthropic, not us).
