Prompt-eng-interactive-tutorial is a comprehensive, hands-on tutorial that teaches the craft of prompt engineering with Claude through guided, executable lessons. It starts with the anatomy of a good prompt and moves into techniques that deliver the “80/20” gains—separating instructions from data, specifying schemas, and setting evaluation criteria. The course leans heavily on realistic failure modes (ambiguity, hallucination, brittle instructions) and shows how to iteratively debug prompts the way you would debug code. Lessons include building prompts from scratch for common tasks like extraction, classification, transformation, and step-by-step reasoning, with checkpoints that let you compare your outputs against solid baselines. You’ll also practice advanced patterns such as tool use, constrained generation, and response validation so outputs are trustworthy and machine-consumable.
