ahh, thanks for flagging the browser issues

don't want to build the "meta-course" but we are going to improve the getting started instructions.

Basic steps are: 1. Copy the command on the course page in your terminal 2. Open that folder up in your editor and make sure the Mastra MCP Docs Server is available to your editor 3. Say something like "start mastra course" to your code agent and it should start working

Still very experimental though and depending on editor/model the results do vary a bit

i hear you, we should have added more instructions since it's a new concept (and still very experimental)

we will update the top intro video to show how to actually get into the course and add more information to the course page to make this clear

this is a good idea

Thanks!

I definitely remember spending time on Codecademy years ago

The concepts are pretty similar but this course is definitely pretty Mastra specific.

If you are looking for a more general overview on agent development, my co-founder wrote a short book (available free at https://mastra.ai/book)

Re:Show HN: A "Course" as an MCP Server on Tuesday June 10, 2025 @06:41PM (#44242304)
it currently only covers creating an agent, adding tools/mcp, and agent memory

later this week we will be releasing a workflows lesson

Show HN: A "Course" as an MCP Server

We wanted to build a course for new Mastra devs to get started quickly. However, we knew videos would go out of date and be more difficult to maintain.We decided to launch our "course" as an MCP server. This way your coding agent actually teaches the course content to you and can help you write the code. We think this is a really interactive way to learn.Using an editor with MCP support (such...
