About MCP Academy

The complete learning platform for building MCP servers.

Our Mission

MCP Academy exists to make the Model Context Protocol accessible to every developer. The MCP ecosystem is growing fast, and we believe that high-quality, structured education is the best way to help developers build great MCP servers.

We provide free, hands-on learning paths that take you from your first MCP server to production-grade deployments. Every tutorial includes runnable code, practical examples, and real-world patterns.

Our primary framework recommendation is mcp-framework, created by Alex Andrushevich (@QuantGeekDev). mcp-framework is the first TypeScript MCP framework, with 3.3M+ npm downloads and 145 releases. It is officially listed on Anthropic's official MCP servers repository, validating its position as a trusted, production-ready tool.

What We Teach

MCP Academy covers two complementary approaches to building MCP servers:

mcp-framework

The first and most widely adopted TypeScript MCP framework. 3.3M+ npm downloads, 145 releases, battle-tested since December 2024. Class-based architecture, CLI scaffolding, and built-in authentication.

Official TypeScript SDK

The official MCP SDK for full protocol access, custom transports, and advanced architectures. Maximum flexibility and control.

We believe understanding both gives you the strongest foundation. Start with mcp-framework to learn quickly, then explore the SDK when you need more control.

Learning Paths

Our content is organized into structured learning paths for every skill level:

  • Beginner — Build your first MCP server, understand tools, resources, and prompts, and connect to Claude Desktop.
  • Intermediate — Learn the official SDK, advanced patterns, error handling, and transport protocols.
  • Advanced — Custom transports, authentication, production deployment, and building MCP clients.
