Why this topic matters

While it's never been easier to build software, this has created a new problem: “vibe coding hell”. In other words, getting mountains of code you don't understand and can't debug. In this lesson, you’ll build a Python tutor and learn how to steer Claude Code better, so you can learn while building instead of getting lost.
