Getting started with AI coding
A practical primer — and the start of something larger.
This AI Coding section collects notes and experiments on building real software with AI agents. It works exactly like Notes for now — but it has its own home because it's going to grow into a proper course.
A first workflow
A minimal loop that scales from one-line fixes to multi-file features.
- 1Plan before you prompt
Describe the change and the constraints. Let the agent explore the codebase and propose an approach before it writes anything.
- 2Work in small, verifiable steps
Keep each change reviewable. Run the build or tests after every step so regressions surface immediately.
- 3Verify in the real app
Don't trust green tests alone — open the app and confirm the behaviour you asked for actually happens.

This will expand into a full course on shipping production software with AI. Want to be notified?
