Coffee With Claude

​☕ Coffee with Claude: Cold Start

​A small, hands-on session for 4–5 founders, engineers, and curious builders. No slides, no demo theatre. We open an empty editor and build something real, live.

​You'll see how experienced builders actually work with Claude: as a collaborator, not a chatbot.

​What we'll do

• ​Prompting that holds up on real engineering work, not toy examples

• ​Shipping faster - iteration loops, and where AI genuinely saves time vs. wastes it

• ​Coding, debugging, and architecture decisions with Claude in the loop

• ​Taking a rough idea to a functional prototype in a single sitting

• ​Open discussion and Q&A, over pizza 🍕

​Who this is for
This is a technical session, and it moves at a builder's pace. You should be comfortable writing code in at least one language and running a project locally — terminal, git, package manager, the usual. You don't need to be senior, but you do need to be able to build alongside us rather than watch. If you've never shipped code, this one isn't the right fit.

​Bring

• ​Your laptop, charged, with your usual dev environment ready to go

• ​One idea you've been meaning to build

​Capped at 5 people so everyone gets real screen time.
