| TL;DR: Registration closes in 12 hours for Claude Code for Beginners on February 24—a full-day, hands-on workshop led by me, Mike Taylor (AI engineer, Every writer, and head of AI technical consulting here), with Every CEO Dan Shipper as a guest instructor. There's no programming experience required. The cost is normally $1,250, but for the next 12 hours you can register for just $1,050, which includes the workshop and our annual Every membership. I've been writing about AI at Every for a while now, and I recently joined full-time to lead the tech vertical of our consulting practice. Before that, I spent years as an AI engineer after teaching myself to code. I've wasted a lot of time in bootcamps and watched many "learn to code" promises not pan out, and I have a pretty clear sense of why. Most of those courses got the problem wrong. They assumed the hard part was syntax. It wasn't. The hard part was going from an idea to a working thing without getting stopped by a dozen small failures along the way. It's a motivation problem, not an information problem. Claude Code changes that equation. It doesn't just write code—it handles the failures, too. You describe what you want, it figures out how to get there, and when something breaks, you tell it what broke and it fixes it. It's more like hiring a smart engineer than programming. It's also the tool everyone at Every uses—writers, editors, operations experts, product designers. It's not just the technical teams. People across every role have picked this up and built things they couldn't have touched six months ago. In November Dan Shipper ran the first version of this entirely in the terminal. Two hundred people came, most with no technical background. Here's what a few of them said: "Claude Code for Beginners broke through my biggest barrier… Instead of planning endlessly, have the AI build a prototype."—Lucas "In just 7–8 hours, you will walk away as someone with an entirely new, powerful toolkit to build and create whatever they want."—Elliot "It got me up and running on building working apps… Now I'm confident I can build and deploy apps for my personal and business use."—Greg Registration for Claude Code for Beginners closes tonight. We're running our second cohort on February 24 (that's tomorrow), and we need to shut registration now to get everyone onboarded in time. Claude Code for Beginners Tuesday, February 24 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. ET Live on Zoom Discount for Every subscribers: $1,050 (regular price: $1,250) *For the next 12 hours only, the price drops an extra $200—this discount disappears when registration closes tonight. Three months after that first cohort, we've moved the whole workshop to the desktop app—no terminal required. The format is a full day on Zoom with me and Danas a guest instructor. We start with the Claude Code desktop app—no terminal or package managers to slow you down—and spend the day going deeper, with guided walkthroughs, independent building time, peer breakouts, and hands-on help when you're stuck. By the end, you'll have shipped something real and have lots of ideas of what to do next. What you get: - A full day of live instruction, focused on building real intuition—not just steps to follow
- Real-time help during breakouts and independent work time
- A shipped project by end of day
- Post-workshop materials to keep going on your own
- An annual Every membership ($288 value): Access to our daily newsletter, AI tools like Cora, Sparkle, Spiral, and Monologue, workshops, and our Discord community.
