I just recorded a walkthrough of this but I want to lay it out here too. I've been building an instructor kit. A full folder architecture (yes, the same method I teach) designed to help people in this community create real courses. Not loose tutorials. Not "here's a tip" posts. Structured, formatted courses that fit into what we're building here and actually teach someone something useful. The kit has my writing rules, my lesson templates, a course outline system, sample lessons, and a prompt you can hand to Claude or any AI to help you write content that matches the community format. You can use it with Claude Code and a full folder setup, or you can just copy and paste a single file into any AI chat and start building. Both paths work. 🎯 Why I'm doing this. This community has grown fast. 12,500+ members. The courses I've built so far cover the foundation: folder architecture, the abstraction series, Claude Code, prompting frameworks. But I'm one person. There are people in this community who know things I don't. Who have built things I haven't. Who could teach topics I can't cover with the depth they deserve. The way I see it, Clief Notes should operate more like a university than a course platform. Sections and departments, each run by someone who actually has depth in that subject. Your course, your name on it, your expertise. I provide the structure, the audience, the format, and the quality control. You bring the knowledge. 💰 What's in it for you right now. I want to be straight about this. Early on, the main thing I can offer instructors is free VIP access for as long as your course is live and maintained. That gets you into every tier of the community, the live sessions, the recordings, the Discord, everything. As this grows and I can see what kind of attention and value the instructor courses bring in, I want to move toward profit sharing or payouts for instructors whose courses are driving real engagement. I'm still working out exactly how that looks. I'd rather figure it out with real data than promise something I can't deliver yet. What I can promise is that this will not stay volunteer-only forever. The goal is for this to be worth your time in every sense.

From a brand new community to top 100 in under 10 Days and this is all possible because of you It just goes to show when you get like minded people, bring in value like no one else and actually TALK to your community instead of automating it you can grow and build anything, If this is what we can do in a week lets see what we can do in a year together! Thank you so much everyone

Tell us three things: 1. What you do (job, industry, student, career-changer, whatever) 2. What brought you to Clief Notes 3. One thing you're trying to figure out right now related to computing or AI I'll respond to every single one. And read each other's intros too because the person who's stuck on the same problem as you might already be in this thread. I'll go first I am Jake, I have been working in tech for 15 Years, building with Generative AI for 3 Years straight now! Excited to teach and learn! That's it. Simple, scannable, gives you data on who's joining and what they need, and keeps the feed clear for content that retains people past week one.
