Module 6, Lesson 1: Scaffolding the Project

14 min read min

Before We Start

From previous lessons:

  • Your design is done and connected to Claude Code. Module 5, Lesson 4
  • Your project is on GitHub with your design system, prototypes, and specs imported and organized locally. Module 5, Lesson 5
  • Claude Code should already be connected to YouTrack via MCP from Module 3, Lesson 6

Tools / setup you'll need:

  • Your YouTrack Agile board, populated and segmented by phase (backlog, develop, review, test, staging, done)
  • WebStorm, open to your project directory
  • Claude Code, running in your WebStorm terminal

By the end of this lesson, you'll:

  • Have confirmed Claude Code can read your YouTrack issues
  • Have written a CLAUDE.md file that gives Claude Code guiding principles for how it works on your project
  • Have Claude Code scaffold the foundation of your app: the API and data layer, plus the mobile app shell
  • Have committed that work to a feature branch, without merging to main yet
