How your system works
Before you install anything, here is the whole picture: what you are building, how the course and your system fit together, and why you never have to design any of it yourself. Watch this first, then set up your tools below.
A tour of your course and your system, and how the two stay in sync. About 4 minutes.
Before you start
A few things to have ready. You can decide right now whether today is the day:
- A Mac or Windows computer that is yours, where you can install software.
- A Claude Pro subscription at $20/month. This is what powers Claude Code. Sign up at claude.ai if you do not have one yet.
- About 30 minutes, and no coding experience.
Two steps to set up
1. Install Claude Code
One command sets up everything for you. The official installer handles the rest, no separate tools to wrangle.
2. Download your system
Your complete Part 1 root system as one zip: the root file, all four languages, your skills and memory. It unzips to a folder called four-languages-part-1, usually in your Downloads. Open that folder in Claude Code and you are ready for Module 1.
What next?
Install Claude Code, download your system and unzip it, then open that folder in Claude Code. That is it: head into Module 1 and your system meets you there. If you get stuck, screenshot it and ask Claude, or email hello@thefourlanguages.com.
Optional: when a skill or a module asks for an extra tool, the Expansions guide in Get Set Up covers web access, payments, email, and more. You do not need any of it to start.
