Step-by-Step Guide

From zero to coding with Claude in under 2 minutes

Install Claude Code

One command. Takes about 30 seconds.

a
Check if you have Node.js
node --version
You 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-code
This installs the claude command on your machine. Runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows (WSL).
c
Verify it worked
claude --version
You should see a version number. If you do, you're ready to go.

Run It in Your Project

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-project
Replace ~/my-project with the actual path to your project.
c
Start Claude Code
claude
That's it. Just type claude and 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".
