Colin Matthews will level up your technical skills

I'm a technical PM and builder who has taught more than 40k PMs, designers, and tech professionals the fundamentals of shipping software. I've been featured by Lenny four times, spoken at product conferences and events, and assisted Fortune 500 companies with technical upskilling and AI adoption.


My main goal with any course is to help you build your own mental model of how a technology or system works. Because of how fast the industry is changing, I think its more valuable to understand something from first principles than it is to learn a specific tool or product.

Become an AI-Native Builder

Hi, I'm Choon, founder of LiveStarLight. I'm part of the first cohort of AI Native Builder. This course is not easy. If you persist through the annoying parts, it pays off in a way I didn't expect. You can't just sit back and listen here. You get your hands dirty, and you're not doing it alone. It's the cohort too, classmates in office hours, trading real use cases and getting unstuck together. That's what "AI Native" means. AI isn't a shortcut around the hard parts, it's your partner in doing them properly. I opened a real pull request into a real repo, real user data behind it. Half of week two was just fighting repo access. But the moment that made it worth it wasn't building anything. It was pairing with AI to build a rubric that graded my own work, and watching it catch a bug I'd completely missed. If you're willing to get your hands dirty, this course gives you something back.

This was a great course! It's super valuable to get a production application environment that I would not be able to get at work and practice a lot of the concepts taught in this couse.
