How could I have missed this. I’ve been using Claude Code in the terminal since I started developing my app. Recently I noticed that within the Claude Desktop app, direct references were being made about coding for my app over the past few weeks. That led me to slowly realize I could now use the desktop app to fully use Claude Code (MCPs, Skills, etc) something I didn’t think was possible before. From what I can tell, Claude Code first arrived inside the Claude Desktop app around late November 2025, and a fully redesigned desktop experience (the dedicated “Code” tab) landed in April 2026, but I’d like to hear it from people who’ve actually been using it. Have any of you had a similar experience? And are you using the desktop app to do your coding, or are you sticking with the terminal? submitted by /u/BullfrogRoyal7422
