About this course

This course contains the use of artificial intelligence :)Welcome to the the Claude Code Beginner Crash Course! This curriculum is designed for professionals new to Claude Code and assumes you have a solid background in software engineering and are proficient in Python, Next JS and generative ai. We will be working extensively in the terminal and using the Cursor IDE for seamless integration, but you can follow along with any editor that supports the Claude Code extension.

This course is for software developers, AI engineers, and data scientists who want to move beyond simple chat interactions and harness the full power of Claude Code to build automated, context-aware, and secure development workflows.

What You Will Learn in Claude CodeClaude Code is more than just a coding assistant; it's a powerful, extensible platform for creating AI-driven development tools. This course will teach you to master its core architecture, from basic commands to building complex, multi-agent systems.

Architecture and Core Concepts

Slash Commands: Go beyond basic prompting and learn to control every aspect of Claude Code's behavior, context, and configuration directly from your terminal.

Persistent Memory (CLAUDE .md): Learn to give Claude a long-term memory. We'll cover how to create and manage user, project, and local memory files to store preferences, coding standards, and architectural context that persists across sessions.

Hooks: Unlock the ultimate automation tool. You will learn to create shell commands that trigger at specific events in Claude's lifecycle, enabling you to automate everything from running tests to formatting code and even calling other AI agents.

Sub-Agents: Design and build a team of specialized AI assistants. You'll learn how to cre
