Do I need to know how to code?
No. Claude writes the code. You describe what you want. The hard part is knowing what you want and being able to say it clearly, which is a creative skill, not a technical one.
Do I need to use the terminal? I'm no hacker.
Classic hacker response. Real hackers never think they're hackers. Also, no - you can run Claude Code entirely from the Claude desktop app if the terminal is not your thing.
What actually happens each week?
One live weekly lesson (with multiple sessions that cover the same material so everyone can find a time that works for them). Plus weekly office hours, plus a Slack channel that stays busy between sessions. New this round: a full week on taste, run with Sublime. At the start you'll pick something you want to build by the end (this can and often will change). Then, at the end, we'll do a show+tell where you share what you've made.
What if I fall behind?
There's no such thing. The race is long and only with yourself. You're exactly where you need to be. Also sessions are recorded and the recordings do not expire. Also the learning happens when you're able to receive it. No rush, no foul.
What do I need on my computer?
A Mac or a PC made in roughly the last five years, and a Claude subscription. That is it. You do not need a powerful machine because none of the work happens on it. We walk through the whole setup live in week one, and there is a written guide if you want to do it early.
Can I retake it?
Yes you can and guess what? It's free. A lot of students end up retaking it because this stuff all changes so fast. Spots for retakers are limited.
What is Sublime and why are they involved?
Sublime is a tool for collecting and connecting the things you read and save, built by people who care a lot about taste. They are partnering on Cohort Four, and they are running the week on taste with us. If you came here from Sublime, this is the same cohort, not a different one.
What if the tools change and this becomes outdated?
The tools will change. That is guaranteed. What transfers is describing what you want clearly, iterating with a machine that gets things wrong, and building systems that solve your specific problem instead of a generic one. Claude Code today, something else in two years, same job.
