A FREE course on using Claude Code for real .NET work - not toy prompts and screenshots, but the workflows, configuration, and code that hold up on an actual ASP.NET Core codebase. Every lesson includes an in-depth article and, where there is something to run, a fully runnable .NET 10 project.
Claude Code changes fast. Every lesson here is written against a specific version and re-verified when the tooling moves.

Module folders map to the course syllabus. Lessons that are pure workflow or configuration have no code folder, which is why most rows above show —.
Every project targets .NET 10.
git clone https://github.com/codewithmukesh/claude-code-for-dotnet-developers.git
cd claude-code-for-dotnet-developers/modules/04-mcp-plugins/build-mcp-server-csharp
dotnet build NuGetMcpServer.slnxEach lesson folder has its own README with what the project does and how to run it.
- .NET 10 SDK
- Claude Code
- A code editor - VS Code, Visual Studio 2026, or Rider
Is this course really free?
Yes - 100% free, forever. All articles and source code are open and accessible. No paywalls, no premium tier.
Do I need to know Claude Code already?
No. The course starts from installation and builds up. Basic C# and .NET knowledge is the only real prerequisite.
Why is there no code for most lessons?
Much of Claude Code is workflow, prompting, and configuration rather than application code. Code folders exist only where there is something genuinely runnable, such as the MCP server in Module 04.
What version of .NET does this use?
All projects target .NET 10, the current LTS release.
Claude Code ships weekly. How do you keep this current?
Every lesson pins the version it was verified against, and lessons are re-verified when the tooling changes underneath them. If you spot something stale, open an issue.
Can I use this code in my own projects?
Yes. Everything is MIT licensed. Use it to learn, reference, or build on.
