AI-Assisted Development: Code Smarter with Copilot and ChatGPT

Writing code entirely from scratch is no longer the only way to build software. Embracing AI-assisted development helps you write cleaner code faster, overcome developer's block, and solve complex bugs in seconds. This course teaches you how to partner with AI tools to accelerate your development workflow. You will transition from purely manual coding to orchestrating AI assistants, enabling you to build full-stack applications with greater speed and fewer errors. What you'll learn: - Understand the foundational concepts of AI code generation, developer prompt engineering, and context limits. - Configure and integrate AI assistants directly into your modern development environment. - Write clear prompts to generate, refactor, and document code across front-end and back-end languages. - Apply AI tools to write automated tests, identify security vulnerabilities, and debug complex error logs. - Practice safe AI coding habits, including validating generated code and navigating security and licensing concerns. The course begins with the core terminology of generative AI for software engineering before moving into practical prompting strategies and full-stack integration workflows. You will study real-world code examples and complete written exercises designed to build your AI-assisted coding habits. This course is designed for aspiring developers and beginners who want to build modern software development skills from the ground up, with no prior AI experience required.
