Before we can start the Claude Code training, you'll need a few things set up on your Linux system.

Most importantly, you need a Claude Pro account. This costs 20 dollars per month. Get this first!

Once you have Claude Pro, Claude can actually help you with the rest of the setup. So we'll start there.

After that, you'll need a terminal for running commands, the uv Python package manager, and Claude Code itself.

This guide covers Linux installation on Ubuntu, Debian, and Fedora. Let's get started with your Claude account.
