Finishing the Claude Code Loop
Recap what we have covered in the course: concepts, workflows, tools, practices, and next steps.
We'll cover the following...
Congratulations! You’ve completed a full stack tour of Claude Code, from first launch to production-ready workflows. This wasn’t just about picking up shortcuts; it was about learning a structured way of working, where a capable agent reads code, plans changes, runs tools, and reports back under your guidance.
