My First Look at Claude Code
Abstract
I know it's only been a few weeks since I wrote about the joy I find in writing code, but I've heard too much about Claude Code and other coding agents to ignore any further.1 There's a new course at DeepLearning.AI taught by Elie Schoppik, head of technical education at Anthropic: Claude Code: A Highly Agentic Coding Assistant . The course is free, and only takes about 2 hours.
