Workshop
Getting Started with Claude Code and Tools
by Le Wagon Montreal
Description
AI coding tools are changing how we build and work, but they can feel like a black box. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll go beyond the hype to understand how Claude code works and how to use it to build your own project.
Who is it for?
This workshop is open to everyone. Whether you’re just starting out or already familiar with APIs and web development basics.
What you’ll learn
- You’ll set up Claude Code and get comfortable working in the terminal, including practical tips to stay efficient.
- From there, we’ll break down how AI agents work in real work flows: when they’re useful, where they fall short, and why human oversight still matters.
- You’ll also explore how to combine:
- Skills (autonomous AI-driven tasks)
- Tools (deterministic scripts the AI can call)
- By the end of the session, you’ll have built a simple multi-step automated work flow that produces structured output — and leave with a solid foundation to keep experimenting on your own.
