It just crossed 20,000 stars and was #1 trending on GitHub. github.com/shanraisshan/claude-code-best-practice This isn't some random collection. Shayan is a Claude Community Ambassador and Certified Claude Architect. He curates tips directly from the Claude Code team — Boris Cherny (creator of Claude Code), Thariq, Cat Wu — and packages them with working examples you can clone and run. ⚓ What's Inside - 86 curated tips from the Claude Code team, organized into 12 categories (prompting, planning, debugging, hooks, workflows, and more) - 9 deep-dive reports — agents vs commands vs skills, rate limits, monorepo patterns, agent memory, and more - Working examples — clone the repo and run the orchestration demo, hooks with sound effects, agent teams - Podcast notes — summaries from Boris Cherny's appearances on Lenny's Podcast, Y Combinator, and Pragmatic Engineer - Community workflow comparisons — side-by-side analysis of 8 major workflow repos ⚓ Why You Should Be on GitHub If you're not on GitHub yet, this is your reason to start.

So we built a full classroom that walks through it section by section in plain English. No jargon, no assumptions. Each lesson explains what a section IS, what it's FOR, and shows a practical example. Check it out: 📖 Best Practice Repo — Decoded in the classroom. 10 lessons covering everything from the README overview to the orchestration pattern to advanced agent teams.
