Start here
A calm place to begin.
You don’t need any experience, and you can’t break anything. Here’s exactly how this works, then you’ll start with Lesson 0.
How the course works
-
Step 1. Tell us your device
Each lesson has a device selector — Mobile, Windows, or Mac. Pick yours and the steps match your screen. You can change it anytime.
-
Step 2. Follow the steps
Short, plain-language steps with copyable prompts. Do them in order, or skip what you already know with the built-in checks.
-
Step 3. Your progress is saved
Ticking off a step saves it in this browser — no account, no sign-up. The Progress page shows how far you’ve come.
What you need
- A computer (Mac or Windows) for the hands-on setup, or a phone to read along and finish on a computer later.
- About 20–25 minutes per lesson. There’s no rush — your place is saved.
- A free Claude account. Lesson 0 shows you how to create one; a few later, optional steps use a paid plan.
Your privacy, plainly
Everything you do stays in your browser. No accounts to learn, no email capture, and nothing you type in a lesson is ever sent anywhere.
Ready?
Lesson 0 gets Claude running on your computer and walks you through your very first prompt.
