Our AI Coding w/ OpenCode course is our most-taken course in the first 7 days of availability (measured in terms of individual lesson completions).
Let's go!!!!

Not watching enough @tsoding streams smh...
old ballet photo…kinda forgot how every backstage moment was spent cramming CS homework
at least C++ doesn’t yell at you in russian when you mess up (probably)

We held out as long as we could.
In all seriousness, we've been writing AI-assisted code at Boot .dev for quite awhile. It took time for the models and tooling to get good enough for real best practices to emerge, and (candidly) for us to get good enough at it to have something do.
95 interactive lessons. You'll build a real interpreter with OpenCode v2. It covers all the important features of modern agents, plus the hard-won tips we've learned through every day usage.. and a few guest-takes from @thdxr on the OpenCode team.
Enjoy.

While I spend most of every day working with LLMs and have managed to adapt to it so far, I would turn back the clock on this technology if it were within my power. I just see huge and diverse negative effects, while the positives are fewer, smaller, surprisingly incremental.

Hey @wagslane how can you distinguish between a slop and no slop (in the level of infrastructure)? And is the AI Coding course launching on Monday share the same process you use for building @bootdotdev or is there any secret sauce?

Our AI Coding Course with OpenCode Launches on Monday!!! We've been waiting over a year to release this bad boi, as we've wanted to make sure we actually understand the tools well enough to teach them.
The last thing we ever wanted was to ship a course that instantly become sage patterns that aren't actually good long-term.
The course purposefully comes at the END of our programming curriculum, because to use these power tools effectively, you still have to KNOW HOW to code by hand - even if you'll hardly ever hand-code in practice. And we don't ship slop here, ever.

Ben Affleck got me back into Python, so I tried logging into @bootdotdev again.
Sign in with Google, same Google account… and I'm Level 1. "Welcome to Boot.dev!" I changed my email at some point, and they match users by email. My Level 59 account is stuck behind 😅
Lesson I learned building a Mac app on Google APIs: key users on the sub claim from the ID token, never the email. Emails change. sub doesn't.
Still love the course. Just want my 157k XP back.

Wondering how to signal to users that your app isn't a vibe-coded piece of slop?

@bootdotdev is one of the best thing i ever seen. I like the freemium it makes me want to buy the subscription.

Debugging skills from a gamified browser course vs actually breaking prod at 3am — does Boot.dev teach you to read stack traces or just pass levels?

Pewdiepie is SO BACK. Building and learning real stuff, even after all the success he's had.
He's an inspiration to the youths. we need to protect him. I'm so proud he lets us continue to sponsor him.
