Claude Community Australia is excited to host a Claude Community Meetup. Limited Spots. Good people. Local Builders. 17:30 – 18:00 | Doors Open & Networking Kick things off — meet fellow AI-curious minds, and warm up before the main program begins. 18:00 – 18:15 | Opening: Why We're Here A quick intro to set the vibe for Australia's growing Claude community! 18:15 – 18:35 | I'm a designer who can't code, and I'm shipping apps anyway — Alex Sviryda I've spent 10 years as a product designer and never learned how to code. But I've always been around products, working out what to solve and why. What I couldn't do was code and build the thing myself. Now I can, so I'm building Grocero, a grocery price comparison app for Australian supermarkets. There's a frontend for iOS and Android, a backend with scrapers, an API, and a landing page to make the marketing side work. Claude Code wrote all of it while I was orchestrating. I'll walk you through the workflow that got it there. It starts with the early idea in my head and a lot of chats with Claude the sceptic, and it ends with the specific setup I use to make sure nothing gets exposed that shouldn't be. Marketing is in there too, since I'm going after organic traffic instead of paying for ads. Spoiler alert: building turned out to be the easy part. Judgement is the hard part, and I'll show you how I make it work. Staff Product Designer at Propeller, working on geospatial software for construction industry. Outside of work I build and ship real apps with Claude Code, without writing the code myself. Nudget, a job application tracker, is live on the App Store. Grocero, a grocery price comparison app for Australian supermarkets, is what I'm building now. 18:35 – 18:55 | Lightning talk 18:55 – 19:20 | Break — Networking and Pizza Have a slice of pizza, a beverage, and mix and mingle. Meet your local community. 19:20 – 19:40 | Lightning talk 19:40 – 19:55 | Community Q&A Bring your questions - where are you stuck? What's confusing? 19:55 – 20:05 | Community announcements & Q&A Community announcements, next meetings, Q&A. 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. PHOTOGRAPHY DISCLAIMER: We will have a photographer on site to take photos for our community event page, and social media coverage.
