What you'll learn

AI Pair-Programming in Practice

the copilots and agent tools that genuinely cut build time.

Vibe-Coding Workflow

turning free-form prompts into clean, production-ready code.

Context Engineering

how to feed LLMs just enough code, docs, and tests to slash cost, latency, and hallucinations.

Ship Before Your Coffee Cools

our three-step routine for going from first prompt to live link in minutes.

Why this topic matters

Speed wins. AI-native workflows let small teams out-ship whole orgs—but only if you fuse code, context & vibe. In 30 min you’ll see how AI pair-programming, context engineering and vibe-coding slash build time, cut token costs, and turn loose prompts into production. Ask anything: best copilot for legacy, token-cost caps, agent-powered QA—nothing’s off-limits.
