Install Claude Code in 1 Line — npm Is Now the Slow Way

If you install Claude Code with npm, you're using the old way. The canonical install path changed in early 2026 — it's now a one-line native installer that auto-updates in the background, has zero Node dependency, and works the same on Mac, Linux, and WSL.

curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash → then type 'claude' to sign in with your Anthropic account (Pro, Team, or Console). About 30 seconds end-to-end if Node isn't even installed.

Heads up: Windows users still need Git for Windows installed first.
