AI Coding for Product Managers: Build Real Products in 6 Weeks

Rajesh Pentakota

Founder CodePup AI (ex-Walmart, Zynga)

PMs who can use Claude Code will build and ship faster.

AI is changing how products get built. In this course, PMs will use Claude Code to build real hands-on projects and learn a disciplined workflow for shipping faster.

PMs are no longer expected to just write specs. They now need to prototype, test, and ship faster with AI tools like Claude Code. This course teaches that through real projects, not theory.

Claude Code is changing what product managers can do without waiting on engineering. In this hands-on course, you’ll build real apps and learn a practical system for using AI safely and effectively.

What you’ll learn

Go from writing specs to building, testing, and shipping real AI-powered products with Claude Code.

  • Use React, Node, Supabase, and Claude to build an end-to-end product, not just isolated demos.

  • Follow a structured workflow to go from idea to working app through small, testable steps.

  • Leave with a live project, repo, and reusable foundation for future PM tools.

  • Turn product requirements into scoped tasks, implementation plans, and acceptance criteria Claude can execute.

  • Practice architecture thinking before coding so you make better technical decisions as a PM.

  • Use a repeatable framework to reduce confusion, rework, and messy AI generations.

  • Learn how to commit, review, branch, and roll back safely when Claude makes bad changes.

  • Run smoke tests, edge-case checks, and validation loops before building on unstable code.

  • Leave with a disciplined build process you can reuse in real product work.

  • Implement sign-in, private user data, and one production-style AI feature inside your app.

  • Learn the PM-level foundations of auth, sessions, and secure user-owned data flows.

  • Build a product that feels real and usable, not just a prototype with prompts.

  • Test prompts, review outputs, and compare good vs bad results using a lightweight eval workflow.

  • Separate software bugs from AI quality issues so you can improve the right layer.

  • Leave with an evaluation sheet and a practical process for improving output quality.

  • Design reusable workflows using Claude Skills, prompting patterns, or project guidance.

  • Learn when to use fresh sessions, reusable context, and structured workflows for consistency.

  • Leave with at least one reusable Claude workflow for PRDs, debugging, or planning.
