Complete Claude Design: Design & Code with Claude in 2026

Learn AI web design from scratch and build professional, responsive websites with Claude, Claude Code, Gemini and Google Antigravity, even if you've never designed a website before.

Designing websites has changed. A few years ago, building a modern, professional website meant spending months learning design software, HTML, CSS and JavaScript before you could create anything worth showing a client. Today, AI tools like Claude, Claude Code, Gemini and Antigravity can turn a well-written brief into a working website in minutes.

But there's a catch. AI only designs as well as the person directing it. Give it a vague request and you get a generic, template-looking page that looks like every other AI website on the internet. Give it a clear design brief, backed by real knowledge of layout, typography, UI and UX, and you get something that looks like a professional designer made it.

This course teaches you to be that person. It's a complete, step-by-step, project-based AI web design course for beginners. It takes you from knowing little or nothing about web design to confidently designing, building and delivering modern websites with AI.

Why this course is different

Most AI website builder tutorials show you how to type one prompt and accept whatever comes out. This course teaches you how to think like a web designer and use AI as your design partner. You'll understand why a design works, how to fix it when it doesn't, and how to steer the AI towards the result you have in mind.

Every section is hands-on. You'll complete exercises as you learn, and each section ends with a mini project, so you're building real websites from the very first hour, not just watching someone else do it. Along the way, you'll build and keep improving your own web designer portfolio, so you finish the course with something real to show clients and employers.

Where you'll start

We begin by showing you exactly where this course will take you: the websites you'll build, the skills you'll gain, and the career paths that open up for AI-assisted web designers. You'll know from day one what you're working towards.

Next, you'll get a full foundation in Claude, your primary AI design tool. You'll install it, explore the interface, and learn how to design visually using Claude's design features, including projects, uploading reference screenshots, and editing your designs step by step instead of starting over every time.

Then comes the most important foundation of all: web design fundamentals, with practical UI and UX design principles. You'll learn the anatomy of a website: navbars, hero sections, features, testimonials, pricing, FAQs, calls to action and footers. You'll learn how layout, grids, whitespace, typography and colour work together, what responsive web design really means, and how to make your sites look great on phones, tablets and desktops. You'll also learn the UX thinking behind high-converting websites: visual hierarchy, user flows, accessibility and consistency. This vocabulary is what separates people who struggle with AI from people who get stunning results.

After that, you'll learn how to write good prompts as a designer. This isn't complicated prompt engineering. It's a simple, practical method for briefing AI in plain language, so you get the website you imagined rather than a generic one. You'll get a reusable prompt formula, ready-to-use fix prompts and a downloadable cheat sheet.

Then you'll put it all together in your first complete multi-page website project, built entirely with AI and without writing a single line of code.

And that's just the beginning

From there, the course steadily increases in difficulty. You'll explore advanced AI workflows such as agentic AI, MCP (Model Context Protocol) and Claude skills, which help you work faster and keep your designs consistent. You'll move into code-powered AI design with Claude Code and Google Antigravity, learning just enough development to feel confident without becoming a programmer. You'll also learn modern website animation and motion design, including scroll animations and 3D effects, and how to recreate the viral web design trends you see on award-winning websites.
