It's taken me a while to come-around to using AI in my coding workflow. After getting started with Claude Code... I'm not sure how I could ever go back to the "old-school" way. In this video I show some of my favorite features of Claude Code and how I use them to plan and build a simple app. Check out Claude Code: https://clau.de/jeremiahpeoples 🖥 m y g e a r 🖥 https://www.amazon.com/shop/jeremiahpeoples Follow me Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeremiahpeoples/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jeremiahpeoples_ Threads: https://www.threads.com/@jeremiahpeoples Business Inquiries: jeremiah@badmoontalent.com Disclaimer: Some or all of the links may be affiliate links, which means I may receive a small percentage of the sale price if you choose to purchase a recommended product through my link.

About This Video

I genuinely think Claude Code is going to change the way software gets built, so in this video I stop talking about AI “in theory” and just build something with it. I make a simple link-in-bio style web app (because every creator has one) and I do it from scratch with HTML, CSS, and plain JavaScript—while showing the Claude Code features I’m actually using. The funny part is I tried building something like this back when I was a junior dev and it took me about 2.5 weeks of nights and weekends… so yeah, I wanted to beat that. I walk through the two main ways I use Claude Code: in the terminal for quick tweaks, and the VS Code extension when I want a more visual planning flow. The biggest win early on is Plan Mode, which slows the agent down, asks clarifying questions, and gets alignment before it writes code. Then I show refactors with full project context—like converting old-school function declarations to modern arrow functions—without breaking everything across the repo. And because I’m notorious for skipping tests on side projects, I hand off automated test writing and a lightweight security-style review to Claude Code, then review the summary of what changed and why it matters.
