How it works

Watch. Copy. Tick.

01

Watch one step

One action per screen. Every window says who types where: you in Terminal, or you to Claude.

02

Copy the command

The guide has every command with a copy button, like claude --version. Pick Mac or Windows once.

03

Tick it off

Check each step as you go. Your ticks stay in your browser, so you can stop and pick it back up later.
