Project description
Claude Tutor
A terminal-based programming tutor powered by Claude. Built with Textual and the Claude Agent SDK.
Overview
Claude Tutor is a TUI (Terminal User Interface) application designed to help you learn programming concepts. Unlike a typical coding assistant, Claude Tutor focuses on teaching rather than writing code for you. It will:
- Explain concepts clearly and thoroughly
- Guide you toward understanding with questions and hints
- Provide small examples to illustrate concepts
- Encourage you to write code yourself
- Review code you share, pointing out what works well and what could be improved
Installation
uv sync
Or install from PyPI:
uvx claude_tutor
Running
uv run python app.py
Using the TUI
When you launch Claude Tutor, you'll see a simple interface with:
- A welcome header at the top
- A chat log area in the middle showing your conversation
- A text input field at the bottom for typing messages
Type your programming questions in the input field and press Enter to send. Claude's responses will appear in the chat log. The interface uses color-coded panels to distinguish between different message types:
- Blue - Your messages
- Red - Claude's responses
- Grey - Tool usage (when Claude reads files in your codebase)
- Green - Slash command feedback
Slash Commands
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
/help |
Shows a list of available commands. |
/clear |

/tutor |
