Claude Code FunLaunch Your First Project

Build real software with AI. Without learning to code first.

Every module after setup teaches one move you use again on the next project — and the one after that. You finish with a real game, and nine moves that make your next build yours rather than generic.

It’s a tool as much as a course. I made it with Claude Code, using the same process it teaches you. By the end, you’ll have run that process once, start to finish, on a project of your own.

You’ll need an Anthropic account and access to Claude Cowork. It’s in the downloadable Claude desktop app.

Hey, it’s Jeremy. I gave the free version of this process to 72 students. One picked it up cold and built something great. The other 71 got stuck: “I don’t know where to start.” “I tried and got a mess.” “Am I not technical enough?” They were smart, motivated people. They needed the steps in order, with someone on call.

That’s what this is. The same process — the one I used at a Fortune 50 bank. It’s also the same process I used to build this site and the tool: a custom-coded learning platform that walks you through using Claude to make your first product. I made it for you, so you can make something high quality, and make it fast.

Learn these and you’ll be better at Claude

  1. 1

    Get your system set up

    Set up Cowork on your own machine, and know why each piece is there.

  2. 2

    Talk to the machine

    Write a prompt that gets something specific back. Not something generic.

  3. 3

    Make research that is actually useful

    Not a pile of links — research the next step can be built from.

  4. 4

    Know a session from an agent

    When you are in a conversation, when you are running a worker, and why it matters.

  5. 5

    Use skills

    What they are, how to install one, and when it is the right tool for the job.

  6. 6

    Set it going and walk away

    Brief it properly, start the run, go get a snack. Come back to work that is done.

  7. 7

    Work with documents

    Stack them up, review them, refine them. Hand them over and get a product back.

How it works

Ten modules, four stages. Each one hands the next a document you wrote.

  1. Set up

    • 0Set up your system

    You leave withCowork, running

  2. Decide what to build

    • 1Write a good prompt (Research)
    • 2Get the most out of a session (Ideation + the grill)
    • 3The Project Charter

    You leave withproject-charter.md

  3. Plan how to build it

    • 4Run more than one agent
    • 5The Product Requirements Document
    • 6Install and run a skill (Evaluation)

    You leave withprd.md

  4. Build it and ship it

    • 7Build it
    • 8Check the work
    • 9Ship it, and what's next

    You leave withindex.html, live

That’s the whole trick. Nothing ever starts from a blank page — every stage hands the next one something you wrote.

You’re never stuck alone

This course is built so you always know what to do next, and where to get help.

🦄 Plan before you code.

  • Lucy — your coachThe coach we install on day one knows every step of this. Ask them anything, any time, right where you’re working. They point you back to the exact lesson.
  • Finish with more than a gameA landing page, and six documents that show exactly how it got made: research, an ideation brief, a charter, a product requirements document, an evaluation report, and the build itself. That’s a portfolio, not a certificate.
  • Plus one that’s just yoursEvery module ends by asking what you’d try next. Those come back to you at the end as an action plan — in your words, about your work, not ours.

Questions, answered

Why pay when the site is free?

The framework is free and stays free. The course is the walkthrough: the right order, one project, a coach, a notepad that keeps everything you write, and an end state: you, having shipped. If you can get there from the free page alone, go do it. One of my 72 students did.

Won’t this be out of date when the AI changes?

The tools will change; the process won’t. Charter → BRD → FFD → Process Maps → Code → Test worked at a Fortune 50 bank before AI existed, and it’s exactly what makes today’s AI produce work you can trust. Claude Code is the current vehicle. When it changes, the lessons get updated. The discipline transfers as-is.

How much time does it take?

Set aside about two hours. Most of that is reading and watching; the building itself is closer to thirty minutes. Module 0 is the part that varies: if Cowork is new to you, give it room. The course saves your place and your notes either way.

Do I need anything else?

An Anthropic account and access to Claude Cowork — it’s in the downloadable Claude desktop app. That’s it.

Ready when you are.

Ten modules. One real project. You finish with a game that’s live, a landing page, and the documents that show exactly how you made them. About two hours, most of it reading and watching, and then you’re sending what you made to a friend.
