Overview of Claude-Code-Everything-You-Need-to-Know
What it is
A community guide to learning Claude Code in three levels (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced). It provides hands-on lessons with checked exercises, and every volatile fact is cited to its source. The guide is independent and not affiliated with Anthropic.
Key features
- Three levels: Beginner (~2½ hours), Intermediate (~3 hours), Advanced (~3 hours 20 minutes plus run time).
- Hands-on lessons with checks that print PASS or FAIL, run from a practice copy.
- Help that fades as you learn: GUIDED (exact command), HINTED (goal + hint on pressing h), CHALLENGE (goal only).
- Every lesson page carries a Stamp showing the Claude Code stable version and date the claims were checked against.
- Checks are tested in CI: the practice template shows every check failing on its main branch and passing on reference solutions.
- Examples are inert until copied into a project and follow a safety contract (local only, least privilege, smoke test without Claude).
- Covers topics: permissions, memory, models, skills, hooks, subagents, MCP, plugins, automation.
Use cases
- Learning Claude Code from scratch, from first session to unattended multi-agent runs.
- Practicing with step-by-step exercises that verify work automatically.
- Preparing for advanced usage such as parallel sessions, CI integration, and team setup.
Getting started
You need a paid Claude plan (Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise), a Claude Console account, or a supported cloud provider, plus Node.js LTS and git. 1. Make your practice copy: open claude-code-practice, select Use this template > Create a new repository, and clone your copy. Or open your copy in a Codespace. 2. In your copy, start the app: bash npm run learn 3. Open a second terminal in the same folder. The app tells you what to type there, starting with installing Claude Code, and checks your work as you go.
License and pricing
