Can Claude Write and Edit Code?

Yes — available on the free plan

Artifacts

Artifacts are Claude's way of creating standalone content—a design, a deck, a document, a dashboard, a small interactive tool—in a separate panel. **Available on Free, Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise**, and in Claude Code on any plan that includes it. Paid plans also get beta templates—**Claude Design, Claude Slides, and Claude Docs**—for polished, shareable output; on Enterprise these are off until an owner turns them on. Artifacts made before September 16, 2026 are 'legacy' artifacts and keep working, but new ones use the current experience.

Claude Code

Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic coding tool. It requires **Pro subscription at minimum—that's $20/month**. Available as a terminal CLI, a **native VS Code extension**, and a **native JetBrains plugin** (IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, Android Studio, WebStorm, PhpStorm, GoLand), plus Xcode integration via the Claude Agent SDK. It also now runs **in the browser at claude.ai/code** ('Claude Code on the web'), and the **Claude mobile app** (iOS/Android) lets you start, monitor, and steer cloud sessions or use Remote Control on a local session. A **Chrome extension** adds browser automation (reading console/DOM, testing, form-filling) to coding tasks on any paid plan.
