From abacba5069041e6b048365c9ac0d56bbd7bd8252 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Timothy Warner Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2026 09:32:14 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] fix: add missing notebook navigation links in README getting-started section The "When you are ready to begin" paragraph pointed to a plain-text reference with no actual link. Replace with clickable links to both the 00_Tutorial_How-To setup notebook and the 01_Basic_Prompt_Structure first lesson so learners can navigate directly from the README. --- README.md | 18 +++++++++++------- 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index d99c4d5..48f9132 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -5,35 +5,38 @@ This course is intended to provide you with a comprehensive step-by-step understanding of how to engineer optimal prompts within Claude. **After completing this course, you will be able to**: -- Master the basic structure of a good prompt + +- Master the basic structure of a good prompt - Recognize common failure modes and learn the '80/20' techniques to address them - Understand Claude's strengths and weaknesses - Build strong prompts from scratch for common use cases ## Course structure and content -This course is structured to allow you many chances to practice writing and troubleshooting prompts yourself.
