If you've been a developer on X or Reddit lately, you've seen the posts. Someone discovers Claude Code on a Tuesday and by Thursday they haven't slept, they are BURSTING with energy and ideas, and they're calling it project-induced mania. It's not far off. But you have already been working with Claude Code/Chat GPT and it's not that revolutionary.
This is different.
Are our brains lighting up because we're finally seeing a mirror of how we naturally think? Is it that this might be a more predictable system than our own natural memory, more accurate in the way it stores what we give it? It's a new way to interact with Claude Code because it's giving it rules to move about markdown files and how it's connecting nodes, and it self-updates with each Claude session.
Scott will be hosting in person at the library. Kelsey will be streaming in live from Baja, Mexico.
By the time this meeting happens, it will have been 18 days since Kelsey saw what Scott is about to show you: speaking a website into existence, with just his function button(mac), no boilerplate, just describing what he wants and watching it appear. He will discuss how he's using plugins and prompts and CLIs to see how things are different than how development has been.
Kelsey will show what she did in those 17 days. Taking a project of four months: building a nationwide membership platform, three user tiers, enterprise scope, an automated maintenance calendar generated from PDFs of equipment make and model specs and public data sets -> On milestone 4/5.... to Claude Code. In 3 days, she had it on local to demo to the client... She is now handing the client an obsidian vault instead of a WordPress backend.
Scott will close with what he has done in those same 18 days since he gave Kelsey that demo, the way his thinking and tools have changed even further.
Q&A at the end
This is moving fast and we just want to rally everyone who wants to play and ESPECIALLY anyone who wants to do good in the world.

### Who this is for
You'll get the most out of this if you write code or have written code and want to see what a NEW Claude Code workflow looks like in practice. If you've been hearing about AI-assisted/agentic development and want to see it. If you're skeptical and want an honest look at what these tools actually do and don't do.
You don't need to be a developer, but we'll be talking at a technical level. Comfort with developer jargon will help.
