Why this guide

The docs tell you what.
This shows you how.

Visual by default

Mermaid diagrams show how each feature works under the hood — so you understand why, not just how.

Copy-paste templates

Production-ready slash commands, CLAUDE.md files, hook scripts, MCP configs and plugin bundles — drop them into your project today.

A guided path

Ten modules in the order a learner needs them — beginner to power user in 11–13 hours. No more guessing what to learn next.

Self-assessment built in

Run /self-assessment or /lesson-quiz inside Claude Code to find your gaps and get a personalized path.

Level 1 — Beginner

Getting started

Get productive on day one: commands, memory, safe rewinds and the CLI basics.

Level 2 — Intermediate

Building workflows

Automate with skills and hooks, then connect live data and delegate to subagents.

Level 3 — Advanced

Power user

Plan, run headless and on a schedule, then package everything as a plugin for your team.

Get started

Fifteen minutes to your first workflow

  1. Clone the repo

    Everything is markdown — templates included, nothing to install.

    git clone https://github.com/luongnv89/claude-howto.git
  2. Take the self-assessment

    Inside Claude Code, find your level and skip what you know.

    /self-assessment
  3. Follow the roadmap

    Work through the modules at your level — progress is tracked above.
