CODEHANCE

The ownership accelerator

You’re not here to learn to code.

You’re here to ship a product that earns.

Codehance teaches you the architecture of a real product — every moving part and how they connect — then hands you prebuilt skills so you assemble it with AI. You don’t memorise syntax. You launch something you own.

Free · 3 days · no idea needed · no coding background needed

Coding courses teach you syntax. Then you quit.

The traditional path: learn a language, learn a framework, grind through tutorials for months — and still never ship anything real. The finish line keeps moving, so most people stop running.

Meanwhile the thing you actually wanted — a product of your own, out in the world, making money — never gets built.

Codehance flips the order. First you understand what a complete product is made of. Then you assemble it from parts that already work, using AI as your builder — and you understand every decision, because you made it.

Decisions are made. You assemble. You ship. You own it.

The method

Learn the blueprint. Assemble the parts.

Every real product — the apps on your phone, the tools you pay for — is built from the same 23 architectural components: authentication, database, payments, notifications, deployment and the rest. We map them all, then give you a library of prebuilt skills that handles each one — pre-configured, working out of the box.

1

Understand

What this component is, why it exists, how it connects.

2

Assemble

Use the prebuilt skill to set it up with AI.

3

Verify

Confirm it works — and understand what just happened.

4

Customise

Make changes with confidence. It’s yours now.

That cycle repeats for every component until the product is live. And you don’t stay dependent on us: students progress from consumer of skills, to practitioner who knows what’s under the hood, to creator who writes their own.

Your first lesson, free

So… what exactly is a skill?

A skill is a file. Inside it: the expert instructions, decisions, and configuration an AI agent needs to build one architectural component properly. Think of it as a playbook written by someone who has already built that part a hundred times.

Hand an agent like Claude Code the payments skill and it doesn’t guess. It wires up checkout, webhooks, and receipts the proven way — pre-configured for our curated stack, crafted and benchmarked before it ever reaches you. This is what makes agents genuinely autonomous: a skill carries judgment, not just instructions, so the agent can do multi-step work without you babysitting every line.

That’s the actual secret of Codehance. You don’t memorise code — you learn what each component is, then deploy the skill that builds it. And because the final module teaches you to write your own skills, you graduate owning the capability itself, not renting ours.

You now know more about AI skills than most people using AI tools daily — and that was free. It’s also exactly how the whole programme teaches.

The toolchain

You’ll build with the same AI tools the professionals use.

Codehance students build with Claude Code, Claude Cowork, and Devin — AI coding agents driven by our prebuilt skills, subagents, and MCP servers. You direct the work at the architecture level; the agents write the code.

This isn’t a toy sandbox. It’s the same AI-assisted workflow used to ship production software — and learning to drive it is itself a career-grade capability.

And you ship on a production-grade, curated stack: React Native + Expo and TypeScript for the app, Supabase (PostgreSQL, auth, storage) behind it, Stripe for payments, Cloudflare for deployment — with Resend, Sentry, and Mixpanel plugged in by skills.

Decision fatigue kills momentum. We chose once — you build.

  • Claude CodeClaude CodeAnthropic’s AI coding agent. You describe the goal at the architecture level; it plans the work and writes the code.
  • Claude CoworkClaude CoworkAnthropic’s workspace for longer-running agent work — hand over a bigger task, come back to finished results.
  • DevinDevinAn autonomous AI software engineer that takes on whole tickets — planning, coding, and testing by itself.
  • AI skillsAI skillsFiles of expert instructions and configuration that give an agent the judgment to build one component properly. Codehance’s core building block.
  • SubagentsSubagentsHelper agents a main agent spawns for subtasks, working in parallel — one orchestrates, many build.
  • MCP serversMCP serversModel Context Protocol — the open standard that lets agents plug into your tools and data, like your database or designs.
  • React Native + ExpoReact Native + ExpoOne TypeScript codebase that ships as a real iOS and Android app. Expo handles the scary app-store build steps.
  • TypeScriptTypeScriptThe web’s most-used typed language — and the one AI tools know best, which means fewer mistakes in generated code.
  • SupabaseSupabaseYour whole backend in one platform: PostgreSQL database, auth, file storage, and APIs — generous free tier included.
  • StripeStripeThe industry standard for taking payments — checkout, subscriptions, receipts. The “earn” in ship-and-earn.
  • ResendResendDeveloper-friendly transactional email — password resets, receipts, and reminders that actually arrive.
  • SentrySentryError and crash tracking. When something breaks in production, you know what, where, and why.
  • MixpanelMixpanelProduct analytics — see what users actually do inside your app, so you improve the right things.

Start here — free

Prove it to yourself in 3 days.

No idea needed — we give you the app design. No coding needed — we give you the skills. Your only job is to follow along and assemble. By day three you have a real app, with real login, running on your machine. Built by you.

01

The Architecture

15 min · watch + understand

See every moving part of the app before touching anything — the frontend, where authentication sits, the database, how they connect. Most people never see this picture. It changes how you look at every app on your phone.

02

The Assembly

30 min · do + build

Scaffold the project with the bootstrap skill and watch the screens come to life. Real UI, real navigation, running on your machine. “I actually built that.”

03

The Magic

30 min · do + wow

Wire up authentication with the auth skill. Sign up, log in, watch the app respond. It works — and you can see exactly what it takes to finish it with your own idea.

Then keep going

The challenge is day one. Your product is the point.

Build your own idea — from £349 a year

When you’re ready, the Builder subscription unlocks the full curriculum, the entire skills library, and the community — for less than most people spend on courses they never finish. £349/year, or £49/month. That’s the only price you’ll see on this page.

Want a deadline that isn’t optional?

There’s a small-group cohort: a mentor who reviews your architecture before you build on it, weekly live unblocking, a hard ship deadline, and a public demo day. You can’t buy accountability from a video library — this is where it lives.

And for a few founders a year —

1:1 mentorship directly with the Founder: product strategy, custom-built skills for your product, bespoke go-to-market. By application only.

Every path starts in the same place — the free challenge.

Owners, not learners

People who’d never coded. Products that earn.

I spent two years bouncing between coding courses and finished none of them. Day 1 of the challenge showed me the architecture of a whole app in 15 minutes — that was the moment it clicked. Ten weeks later my habit tracker was in the App Store. Last month it made £412.

Habit tracker · shipped & earning

I was a PM who spent a decade telling engineers what to build without really understanding how it fit together. Codehance didn’t teach me syntax — it taught me the blueprint. I assembled my invoicing tool with Claude Code and the payments skill in a weekend sprint each week.

The cohort deadline is the reason my product exists. A mentor caught a database mistake in week one that would have cost me months. I demoed at demo day, got my first paying customer two weeks later, and I understand every part of what I built.

Every shipped product joins the public showcase — real, countable proof this works.

The programme doesn’t end when you learn.

It ends when you earn.
