Claude Code - Advanced

Slide 45 / 55

Course concept

Claude Code now has several surfaces

  • Terminal CLI: full local environment, best for this course

  • VS Code and JetBrains: graphical diffs, selection context, IDE integration

  • Desktop app: multiple sessions and visual review outside the terminal

  • Web: Anthropic-managed cloud sessions at https://claude.ai/code

  • GitHub Actions, GitLab, Slack, and MCP connectors for workflow integration

The same project instructions matter across surfaces, but the execution environment changes.

Transcript

Claude Code is no longer only a terminal experience.

The terminal CLI is still the best surface for this course because it exposes the local repository, shell tools, permissions, and automation clearly. But Claude Code also appears in IDEs, the desktop app, the web environment at claude.ai/code, GitHub and GitLab workflows, Slack, and MCP-connected systems.

The same project instructions and habits matter across these surfaces. What changes is the execution environment: local terminal, IDE, managed cloud session, or workflow integration.
