Claude Code Tutorial: Beginner to Advanced in 20 Minutes

🚀 Work with us - https://aifoundations.io/apply ✨ Join Ai Foundations - https://aifoundations.io This is the only Claude tutorial you’ll ever need. With this guide you can go from beginner to pro using Claude. I cover the basics like signing up, settings, memory, prompting and we work our way up to the intermediate features like Claude projects, artifacts, inline visualizations, data analytics and more. Then we finally dive into Claude desktop, where I teach you how to use Claude Cowork with computer use, scheduled tasks, and connectors for Notion, Gmail and Google Calendar. I even show you how to build Claude skills from scratch. After you have a beginner's understanding of Claude we dive into Claude Code. I show you how to deploy a real website in Netlify and even control Claude through a remote environment on Anthropics servers. We cover github, environment variables, pretty much everything you need, explained in beginner terms. I even cover exporting your ChatGPT memories and bringing them over to Claude. If you've been hearing about Claude AI, Claude Cowork, or Claude Code and wondering how it all fits together: this is the video you’ve been searching for. I walk through everything step-by-step leaving no stone unturned. Utilize the chapters and resources below to get the most out of this video.
