2026 Claude Code in Practice: Automating AI Development from Design to Implementation, Testing, and PRs

Are you just telling Claude Code, “Build it for me”? It works well at first. But as the project grows, the AI modifies the wrong files, forgets the rules, and repeats the same mistakes. In this course, you’ll learn how to leverage **the latest Claude Code** to delegate coding while still keeping the developer in control of **design, permissions, context, and verification**. **Design → Plan → Implement → Test → GitHub PR** Based on the developer’s judgment and review, AI-powered development automation is applied throughout this entire process.

Recommended for those who...

For those who have tried Claude Code but aren’t making effective use of it

Although you’ve tried asking Claude Code to write code in natural language,

  • Modifying the wrong files or

  • Forgetting project rules or

  • having to repeat the same explanations over and over,

  • Because you have to check the output over and over again individually,

    If you’ve felt, “It’s convenient, but I’m not confident using it in a real project,” this course will help.

Developers who want to apply AI coding to their actual development workflow

Not just simple code generation,

Writing requirements → reviewing the plan → implementation → testing → fixing errors → GitHub PR

This is suitable for those who want to learn how to carry out all of this with Claude Code.

You will also learn practical ways to analyze and modify existing codebases, not just work on personal projects.

Those who want to systematically learn even Claude Code’s advanced features

Beyond CLAUDE.md and Plan Mode

Skills · Hooks · Plugins · MCP · Subagents · Worktree · CI

Those who want to automate repetitive development tasks using Claude Code’s extensions, such as Skills, and take their AI development environment to the next level.

After completing the course,

  • Upon completing the course, you will go beyond simply having Claude Code write code and be able to design and control how the AI works.

    • For each project, you can write CLAUDE.md and a SPEC to communicate development rules to the AI.

    • Before having it code right away, you can review and revise the implementation plan in Plan Mode.

    • You can configure Claude Code's permissions and Sandbox to let it work safely.

    • You can analyze an existing codebase to find, fix, and test bugs.

    • You can establish a development workflow that analyzes GitHub Issues, modifies the code, and even connects it to a PR.

    • You can use Skills, Hooks, and MCP to automate repetitive tasks.

    • You can use subagents to divide tasks among multiple AI agents.


    SPEC → PLAN → BUILD → TEST → REVIEW → PR

    You’ll be able to apply this consistent Claude Code development process to your own project..

What you’ll learn

A Practical Development Workflow Completed with Claude Code

From the initial installation and use of Claude Code, you will follow the actual development workflow and learn everything from CLAUDE.md, Plan Mode, Sandbox, and context management to implementation, testing, and GitHub PRs.

Automate development with Skills · Hooks · MCP · Subagents

Learn how to automate repetitive development tasks by leveraging advanced features such as Skills, Hooks, MCP, Subagents, GitHub, and CI, going beyond the basics of Claude Code.

The goal is to create a development environment where AI goes beyond simply writing code, automating repetitive tasks so developers can focus on design, decision-making, and validation.

I didn’t want to create a course simply about how to use Claude Code.

A course could be created simply by explaining Claude Code’s commands and features one by one.

However, the features keep changing.

What I considered more important than the features themselves was how to develop with AI.

So in this course, I explain everything around one consistent development workflow.

SPEC → PLAN → BUILD → TEST → REVIEW → PR

We organize the requirements,
have Claude Code create an implementation plan,
have the developer review and implement the plan,
then proceed through testing and review all the way to a GitHub PR.

And to further develop this workflow

CLAUDE.md, Sandbox, Context Management, Skills, Hooks, MCP, Subagents, GitHub·CI

We cover the same features within an actual development process.

Do you have any questions?

Q1. Can I take the course even if I’m new to Claude Code?

Yes. We explain everything step by step, starting with installation and basic usage, so even those new to Claude Code can follow along.

You will first learn the basic workflow by building a simple project with Claude Code, and then expand to CLAUDE.md, Plan Mode, Sandbox, context management, GitHub, and test automation.

However, having a basic understanding of Python or web development will help you better understand the hands-on exercises.

Q2. How much will I be able to do with Claude Code after taking this course?

Beyond simply asking, “Make the code for me,” you will be able to work through the entire flow of a real development project together with Claude Code.

In the course,

Requirements definition → planning → implementation → testing → code review → GitHub PR

You will practice the process hands-on.

It also covers how to automate repetitive tasks using Skills, Hooks, MCP, and Subagents, as well as how to delegate multiple tasks to AI agents.

In other words, the goal is to use Claude Code not simply as a code generation tool, but as an AI development agent that performs real-world development tasks.

Q3. How is this different from other introductory Claude Code courses?

This course goes beyond simply introducing Claude Code’s commands and features one by one.

The most important focus is not “how to make AI code,” but “how to design and control the way AI works.”

So the entire course is structured around‑

SPEC → PLAN → BUILD → TEST → REVIEW → PR

It is structured around the actual development workflow of SPEC → PLAN → BUILD → TEST → REVIEW → PR.

And through three projects, you will experience not only creating new projects but also analyzing existing code, fixing bugs, testing, and handling GitHub Issues and PRs.

After completing the course, you will learn how to apply Claude Code reliably to real-world projects, which is more important than simply knowing many features.
