Tech stack you'll master

Python 3.12+OpenAI, Anthropic ClaudePrompt chains, RAG, AI agentsVS Code, Git

Prerequisites

  • A computer with 8GB+ RAM (Windows, macOS, or Linux)
  • No prior programming experience — week 1 starts from absolute zero
  • An OpenAI or Anthropic API key for the hands-on work

By the end you'll be able to

  • Write clean Python from scratch — variables through object-oriented code
  • Craft precise prompts that get reliable output from GPT and Claude
  • Call OpenAI and Anthropic APIs programmatically from Python
  • Chain prompts into multi-step workflows, RAG pipelines and agents
  • Evaluate and harden prompt-driven features for production use
