How you'll build and ship a feature
1
You write the tests that define what "done" looks like
2
Typing out every line of boilerplate by handTime better spent on design, testing and review
AI
An AI coding agent writes code until the tests passDirected by you, reviewed by you
3
You check it for security risks and deploy it to Azure
You set the requirements, direct the agent, review every change, and ship it the way professional teams do.
AI can help you write code. You still need to understand the software.
Learn to connect interfaces, data and services, test what you build, and explain your decisions. Practical projects give you something concrete to discuss with employers.
Build real applications, get feedback from experienced developers, and put your skills to work with a partner team.
