Washington Claude Code Hands-on Development Lab

About this event

We are hosting an informal afternoon for those interested in getting hands-on with Claude Code. The goal is to move past the initial setup and actually see how it functions within a real development workflow. We will spend our time pairing up or working individually on small coding tasks, testing out the tool's capabilities, and troubleshooting any issues that come up as we go. This lab is intended for developers who have already been curious about the tool and want a dedicated space to experiment without the pressure of a formal presentation. Whether you are experienced with AI-assisted coding or just starting to explore it, the focus is on shared learning and practical application. Please bring your own laptop and a project you do not mind experimenting with. If you are planning to join us, please let us know by clicking the RSVP button so we can get an idea of how many people to expect. It helps us keep the space comfortable and ensure we have enough seating for everyone.
