Learn how professional builders actually use Claude Code with practical, workflow-focused training that gets you productive on day one.
The era of building with AI agents has arrived. Not as a trend. Not as an experiment. As the new foundation of how software gets built.
Claude Code has emerged as the tool of choice for developers and builders who want to work at this new level — a CLI-based agent that thinks alongside you, writes code, manages files, and ships real products.
But knowing the tool exists isn't the same as knowing how to use it well.
Most people fumble through the basics, piece together tips from scattered tutorials, and never develop the kind of fluency that makes Claude Code feel like an extension of how they think.
This course changes that.
No weeks of video before you can do anything useful. The structured foundation gets you productive with Claude Code on day one, then you keep building skill through project-based modules, updated content, and a community of builders working the same way.
Start with a structured curriculum that gets you productive fast. You'll understand not just what Claude Code can do, but how to direct it effectively — giving clear instructions, reviewing output, iterating toward what you actually want.
Learn how Claude Code fits into a professional builder's day-to-day. From planning and specs to implementation and debugging, you'll see how the tool integrates into work that matters — not isolated demos.
Move beyond basics with hands-on projects that build real muscle. Each module focuses on practical application — the kind of work you'll actually do, not contrived exercises.
Claude Code evolves fast. So does this course. New lessons, updated workflows, and fresh examples get added regularly so you're always working with what's current — not what worked six months ago.
This course meets you where you are and takes you further.
You've been productive in your IDE for years. You've heard the hype about AI coding tools, maybe even tried a few. Now you're ready to go deeper with Claude Code — not as a novelty, but as a core part of how you work. This course bridges the gap between your existing skills and this new way of building.
You've been vibe coding — building with AI tools, shipping things, moving fast. But you sense there's a ceiling, and you're ready for something more powerful and flexible. Claude Code is that next step, and this course will help you make the transition with confidence.
You don't need to be an experienced programmer. You don't need to love writing code by hand. This course teaches you to direct and collaborate with an AI agent — a different skill than traditional coding, and one that's increasingly valuable.
You won't spend weeks watching videos before you can do anything useful.
The course is designed so you can start using Claude Code productively on day one. The structured foundation gets you oriented fast. Then you keep building skill through project-based modules, updated content, and access to a community of builders working the same way.
A clear starting point that covers what you need to know — without overwhelming you with every feature. Get oriented, get productive, then go deeper.
New lessons, workflows, and project examples added regularly. As Claude Code evolves and as new patterns emerge, the course grows with it.
You're not learning in isolation. Builder Methods Pro includes access to a private Discord community where you can ask questions, share work, and learn from other builders on the same path.
The teaching style here is practical — ride-along demonstrations, real projects, actual workflows. You'll see how an experienced builder thinks through problems, not just the polished end result.
I'm Brian Casel — a full-stack builder, multi-time founder, and the person behind Builder Methods.
I've been building and shipping software products professionally for over 20 years. I've founded multiple businesses, written a lot of code, and more recently, transformed how I work by going all-in on AI-powered development workflows.
I created Builder Methods to teach what I've learned — not the hype, not the theory, but the practical workflows that actually work. My approach is opinionated and grounded in real experience. I focus on what matters, skip what doesn't, and update my teaching as the tools evolve.
This Claude Code course is the training I wish existed when I started. It's the distillation of workflows I use every day, organized into something you can learn from and apply immediately.
I'm not interested in chasing trends or overselling what's possible. I'm interested in helping you become genuinely good at this — comfortable, confident, and productive with the tools that define how software gets built now.

No. This course teaches you to direct and collaborate with an AI agent — a different skill than writing code by hand. You don't need to be a programmer, and you don't need to enjoy writing code. If you can think clearly about what you want to build, you can learn to work effectively with Claude Code.
The docs explain what Claude Code can do. This course teaches you how professional builders actually use it — the workflows, the patterns, the mental models that make the difference. It's curated, practical, and focused on real work rather than exhaustive feature coverage.
Yes. This course has no third-party dependencies. You'll learn workflows that apply to Claude Code itself — no proprietary frameworks required. Whatever else you're using or learning, this training is compatible and complementary.
Those are tools and frameworks I've created and made available as free, open-source resources. They're available to anyone, but as a Builder Methods Pro member you get direct support from me and the community when using them. This Claude Code course stands on its own and doesn't require you to adopt any specific framework — including mine.
The foundation is designed to get you productive quickly — you can start building with Claude Code on day one. Beyond that, you move at your own pace through project-based modules and ongoing content. This isn't a course you "finish" — it's a resource you keep returning to as you grow.
Yes. Claude Code moves fast, and so does this course. I regularly add new lessons, update workflows, and refresh content to reflect current best practices. Your membership keeps you current.
Absolutely. When you purchase, you can add seats for team members. Everyone on your team gets full access to the course and the entire Builder Methods Pro membership. You can manage your team's seats, invite new members, and revoke access as needed.
For teams with more than 20 members, get in touch and we can discuss volume pricing.
Yes. I offer private workshop engagements for teams and organizations who want customized training. Get in touch for details.
Yes — private coaching is available by request. Get in touch if you're interested.
