Claude Makes Things: Artifacts
Watch Claude build a real, interactive app — live, and changeable on request.
The big idea
This is the first “wow.” Claude can produce artifacts — self-contained interactive pages and mini-apps you can use, filter, and re-open. This is where beginners realise Claude is a maker, not just a talker. Our live example is a real “School Holiday Activities” planner: a rich, filterable board of family activities.
Key insight: An artifact is a working app — the buttons, filters and views all function. Claude builds it from messy real-world inputs, in front of you.
What you'll see on screen
A live holiday-activities planner Claude built — the main board, an About panel, a Filters panel, and a day-by-day calendar view. Use the thumbnails to switch.
