We just published a massive new course on the freeCodeCamp.org YouTube channel that will change the way you think about programming. Instead of just chatting with an AI, you can now learn how to use Claude Code to build real-world agentic workflows. This comprehensive guide was developed by Andrew Brown to take you from a total beginner to a pro who knows how to collaborate with an autonomous coding agent directly in the terminal.
Claude Code isn't your average chatbot. It can read your files, execute terminal commands, and even reason through its own errors to fix bugs without you having to copy and paste code back and forth. This course explains the "Agentic Loop," which is the core logic behind how the AI observes a problem, thinks of a solution, and then uses tools to execute that plan.
Throughout the six-hour deep dive, you will learn everything from basic installation on Windows, Linux, and Mac to advanced concepts like session management. Andrew covers how to resume or fork your coding sessions so you can experiment with different ideas safely. You will also get a handle on the financial side by learning how to monitor your API usage and costs across different providers like AWS Bedrock and Google Vertex AI.
You can watch the full course right now on the freeCodeCamp YouTube channel (12-hour watch).
