🛠️ Welcome to Vibe Coding 101 with Replit!
Ready to shake up your coding game? This isn't your typical coding course — it’s a frontline ticket to the future, built hand-in-hand with Replit, the cloud playground for app creators. Think of it as coding with a turbo-charged AI sidekick.
🌟 What’s the Buzz?
Replit isn’t just another IDE; it’s a one-stop shop that lets you build, host, and share apps without wrestling with the usual setup nightmares. And now? Meet their AI-driven coding agent. This little hero zips through generating and deploying web apps faster than you can say "debug!"
Fun fact: The instructors, Michele Catasta (President of Replit) and Matt Palmer (Head of Developer Relations), are your guides on this vibe-coding adventure.
🤖 Why Vibe Coding?
Because sometimes, you don't need to write every line — your coding agent handles the heavy lifting while you orchestrate. The process feels like crafting a jam session: break the problem into parts, prompt the agent, and voilà, code appears! It’s fast, creative, and satisfies that “more done, less grind” dream.
🚀 What Will You Build?
- Start simple with an SEO Analyzer app. Even if SEO is just a buzzword to you, this project lays down the fundamentals of agent-powered app development.
- Then, get your hands dirty building a head-to-head voting app — hello data extraction and storage!
Along the way, you’ll explore the basic building blocks of web applications, master prompt engineering, and get under the hood of agentic software development.
🧠 Behind The Scenes with Replit
