the engineer who built Claude Code just dropped a 28-minute video on how to write prompts that actually work
I've seen $300 courses that don't cover what he shows in the first 10 minutes
CLAUDE.md files, memory shortcuts, parallel sessions, prompting patterns
all in one video and completely free
works whether you're a developer, a beginner, or someone who's been using Claude for months
based on this, I put together 18 things you can copy and use in Claude today
full guide in the article below
another good example of `tabular-nums` in action. must have for columns of right-aligned numbers (tables, invoices, dashboards).
normal table's columns have ragged left edges as digits swap between narrow ("1") and wide ("0", "8") glyphs.
where tabular stays perfectly flush ~

BREAKING: AI can now design like Apple-level creative directors (for free).
Here are 10 Claude Opus 4.6 prompts that build complete design systems, brand guidelines & 47+ marketing assets in 6 hours:
(Designers are already snapping this)
❌ Adding state to useCallback dependencies.
✅ Instead, use functional setState.
Stable callbacks, no stale closures, no unnecessary re-renders.
Here's the pattern ↓
Junior developer needs to know 4 patterns
Middle dev needs to know 12 patterns
Senior developer needs to know 20 patterns
Design patterns help you solve common problems and improve code quality if used properly.
Ever wondered which design patterns you should focus on as you grow as a developer?
This could be the difference between writing good code... and building great software.
👉 𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿:
You don’t need to know everything at once.
Focus on the essentials — the patterns that show up everywhere.
1️⃣ Builder
2️⃣ Factory Method
3️⃣ Singleton
4️⃣ Decorator
These four patterns help you create, organize, and extend objects efficiently.
Master these, and you’ll write cleaner, more flexible code from day one.
👉 𝗠𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗹𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿:
Ready to step up?
Now it’s time to add more versatile tools to your toolbox.
1️⃣ Strategy
2️⃣ Adapter
3️⃣ Abstract Factory
4️⃣ Template Method
5️⃣ Facade
6️⃣ Bridge
7️⃣ Command
8️⃣ Mediator
These patterns teach you how to swap behaviors, simplify complex systems, and make your code more modular.
👉 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿:
You've mastered the basics.
Now it's time to tackle patterns that solve the toughest architectural challenges.
1️⃣ Prototype
2️⃣ Composite
3️⃣ Chain of Responsibility
4️⃣ State
5️⃣ Flyweight
6️⃣ Proxy
7️⃣ Visitor
8️⃣ Interpreter
These patterns give you superpowers for working with complex structures, dynamic behaviors, and resource optimization.
You'll notice: as you start solving bigger problems, these patterns show up again and again.
📌 Important note:
Don't try to learn everything all at once!
Follow a progression — master the basics, then level up with more advanced patterns as you grow.
Which design pattern was the hardest for you to learn, and how did you finally "get it"?
