AI-Powered Development
IntermediateApp Development with AI Agents
Learn how to build mobile and web apps dramatically faster using AI coding agents and tools. This course teaches you how to work with AI as a development partner — prompting effectively, reviewing AI-generated code, integrating AI APIs, and shipping production apps with tools like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude, v0, Bolt, and Lovable.
What you'll learn
- Use AI agents to scaffold, write, and debug code
- Prompt AI tools effectively for real development tasks
- Build and ship a full mobile app using AI-assisted development
- Integrate LLM APIs (OpenAI, Gemini, Claude) into your apps
- Build AI-powered features: chat, search, summarization, image generation
- Critically review and fix AI-generated code
- Understand the limits of AI tools and when to code manually
Prerequisites
- Basic programming knowledge in any language (JavaScript or Python preferred)
- Familiarity with how apps or websites work at a high level
- No prior AI/ML experience required — we start from practical usage
