When using Claude Code, I find it super helpful to have it write a quick Markdown file outlining your project requirements. This way, you avoid cluttering the code with unnecessary old conversations. Just remember to tell it not to make assumptions and redirect it if it veers off track. Communication is key!
Totally agree! This has saved me from many frustrating moments.
One of my favorite features is using the '/init' command to kick off a new project. It organizes everything and makes it easier to stay on track with your goals right from the get-go!
Don't forget to keep your project structured and utilize git effectively! Regular commits and a clear system for organization can save you from losing valuable code due to unforeseen issues. And remember to maintain a decent sleep schedule; overworking isn’t the way to go!
It's all about balance, but I get tempted to code late into the night!
For real! I used to pull all-nighters and it never ended well.
One fun way to stay productive is to download a mobile SSH app so you can keep coding even during bathroom breaks. It's a hilarious way to maximize your time! Plus, setting up Tailscale can make your mobile coding even easier.
Haha, that’s true! I just reinstalled Termius on my Android and now I’ve got a project to work on while I’m on the throne. Thanks for the tip!
Never thought I’d be coding from the toilet, but it totally works!
Make sure to start off by writing a detailed outline of what you want to accomplish. The more specific you are, the better Claude will perform. After writing a plan in a Markdown file, have Claude analyze it as if it’s your project manager. Then compare its plan with some other LLMs to get different perspectives. It may sound like a lot, but it keeps things organized!
This tip is spot-on! Establishing clear guidelines helps avoid misunderstandings.
