Claude Code runs on your computer and lets you talk to Claude directly — it reads your files, writes code, and takes real actions. Step by step, no technical background needed.
Before installing anything: Claude Code only works with a Claude Pro, Max, Teams, or Enterprise subscription. The free plan doesn't include it.
Already have Claude Pro?
Onward. You're good to go.
Note:If you later see an “unauthorized” or “access denied” error — it's almost certainly the subscription, not your password. Check billing first.
