##the two wrong paths

Most engineers start AI coding the wrong way.

[error_one]

Delegate everything.

Vibe-code your way through. Accept every diff. End up with spaghetti nobody understands, not even you. The codebase becomes a black box, and you lose the thread.

[error_two]

Delegate nothing.

Fight the tools. Treat AI as a toy. Watch your peers ship features in the time it takes you to set up a dev env. Burn out. Quietly grow bitter.

[the_third_way]

Direct. Don't dictate.

Trust your experience, your skills, your process, and your tools, in that order. The engineer's path is neither YOLO nor catastrophizing. It's intentional, confident, and profoundly boring in the best way.

##who this is for

The vibe coder and the engineer see the same tool. They ship different software.

01YOLO mode, accept every diff
Sandboxing, permissions, and hooks
02One huge ball of mud
Easy-to-navigate codebase with deep modules
03Hundreds of meaningless tests (or none)
Useful tests at sensible boundaries
04Middle-of-the-road defaults
Genuinely tasteful, opinionated apps
05Loses the sense of the code
Designs the structure, lets the agent implement
06AI that needs hand-holding
AI that is worth delegating to
##every hero needs a guide

Two engineers, one course.

Hi, I'm Mamdouh.

instructor

I've been building with LLMs and agents from the moment they became real. I've shipped agent-powered systems into production inside companies, and helped entire tech teams restructure around agentic development. I've been teaching for over five years.

Keeping up with AI is a full-time job. Let me do that part. I'll keep out the crap and give you only the patterns that survive contact with real work.

Hi, I'm Ali.

instructor

I've been building with LLMs and agents since they first became real. I've shipped agentic solutions at production scale across multiple companies, and led my own team through the full shift to agentic development.

I obsess over the unglamorous parts: the skills, the configs, the feedback loops that turn an exciting demo into something safe to deploy. If a pattern doesn't survive real work, it doesn't earn a slot in the course.

##still wondering

A few honest questions.

01Do I need any setup before I start?
No. The opening lessons walk you through installation, authentication, and your first working session before the main curriculum begins.
02What level of experience is expected?
Open to tech students, product managers, engineers, and anyone who wants to build products. Curiosity is the main requirement. No prior agent experience required.
03Do I get a certificate?
Yes. On completing the course, you receive a certificate of completion in your name. Note that it's a certificate of completion, not an accredited academic credential.
04Is there any live component, or is it fully pre-recorded?
Fully pre-recorded. You watch lessons at your own pace. No calendar pressure, no missed sessions, no FOMO.
05Do I get a refund if it isn't for me?
Full refund within 7 days of purchase, provided you haven't started consuming the content (watching more than 10%, downloading materials, or joining the community).
06Can my company pay?
Yes. We email an e-invoice to your billing address suitable for expense claims. We are not currently registered for VAT, so no VAT line appears on the invoice.
