The stage is yours! Step up and share how you’re using Claude Code in real projects — from clever workflows and tiny automation hacks to full-on agent systems. Demos, experiments, wild ideas, or work-in-progress builds are all fair game. Let’s hear what Melbourne's AI community has been creating!

Your chance to throw questions directly at team members joining us. No question is too geeky!
What is Claude Code?
Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic coding tool that lives in your terminal. It lets you delegate coding tasks directly to Claude—whether you're building new features, debugging tricky issues, refactoring legacy code, or exploring unfamiliar codebases. Just describe what you want in natural language, and Claude Code handles the rest: reading files, making edits, running commands, and iterating until the job is done.
Think of it as pair programming with an AI that can actually touch your codebase. No copy-pasting between a chat window and your editor—Claude Code works where you work.
Whether you're a seasoned developer looking to speed up your workflow or just getting started with AI-assisted coding, this is a great opportunity to get hands-on experience with the tool alongside others in the community.
Join us after for some drinks around the corner from 7:30. Register here.
