Solana Dev Bootcamp: Vibe Coding with Claude Code & Solana Skills
Live technical bootcamp session for APAC developers demonstrating structured AI-assisted Solana development using Claude Code, MCP tooling, and curated Solana engineering skills.
In this live session for the Solana Developer Bootcamp across APAC, I taught developers how to move from ad-hoc AI prompting to a disciplined, test-driven engineering workflow using Claude Code and specialized Solana Skills. When LLMs write onchain Rust programs or TypeScript client code without guardrails, they often hallucinate deprecated SDK methods; we walked through how to ground coding agents in up-to-date framework documentation, Anchor test harnesses, and deterministic verification scripts.
During the live coding walkthrough, we built and tested a full-stack Solana application end-to-end while inspecting how the agent reasoned through account constraints and transaction simulation errors. Giving builders a reproducible AI harness they can drop into their own repositories immediately leveled up the quality of projects coming out of the bootcamp.
