Claude Code Best Practices

This is a simple repo to summarize various articles/blog posts about the best ways to use Claude Code and synthesize this into a unified best practices guide here: Claude Code Best Practices. This is authored by Claude Code itself.

Given Claude Code is only a few months old now and agentic coding is still very much a nascent domain, the intent is to have this repo stay live/current. Please consider contributing/participating as detailed below.
