Fastest Way Into Claude Code
1. Install
npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-codeRequires Node.js 18+. Works on macOS, Linux, and WSL.
2. Run
cd your-project && claudeOpens an interactive session. Claude reads your codebase and helps you code.
3. Extend
Add skills (custom slash commands), MCP servers (external tools), hooks (lifecycle events), and agents for complex tasks.
Step-by-Step Guide
1Install Claude Code
One command. Takes about 30 seconds.
Install Claude Code
One command. Takes about 30 seconds.
- a
Check if you have Node.js
node --versionYou need v18 or higher. If you see a number like
v20.11.0, you're good. If you get "command not found", go to nodejs.org and install it first. - b
Install Claude Code globally
npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-codeThis installs the
claudecommand on your machine. Runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows (WSL). - c
Verify it worked
claude --versionYou should see a version number. If you do, you're ready to go.
2Run It in Your Project
Point it at your code and start talking.

Point it at your code and start talking.
- a
Open your terminal
On Mac: Spotlight → type "Terminal". On Windows: open WSL or Windows Terminal.
- b
Navigate to your project folder
cd ~/my-projectReplace
~/my-projectwith the actual path to your project. - c
Start Claude Code
claudeThat's it. Just type
claudeand hit Enter. - d
First time? Log in
It'll open a browser window to authenticate with your Anthropic account. Log in, come back to the terminal, and you're connected.
- e
Start talking
Claude automatically reads your project files. Just describe what you want: "add a login page", "fix the failing test", "refactor this function".
