Your development workflow can improve. In this hands-on course, you'll learn Cursor—an AI-powered IDE that helps developers write code more efficiently. Whether you want to reduce repetitive coding tasks or explore how AI can support your development practice, this program teaches you how to use intelligent code generation, helpful suggestions, and prompt engineering to build quality software.

You'll begin by discovering how AI-assisted development works, then progress through practical exercises—from writing your first AI-powered prompts to building complete applications—while learning how to maintain code quality and work effectively with your team. By the end of this course, you will be able to: - Define AI-assisted development concepts and explain how prompt structure, codebase context, and embeddings help Cursor generate useful code suggestions. - Write effective prompts and use Cursor's features to generate code, debug issues, and work across multiple files in real projects. - Assess how AI-assisted development affects your coding speed, code quality, and workflow, and determine when AI suggestions are helpful or need adjustment. - Review AI-generated code using testing, comparison, and validation techniques to ensure quality and alignment with your project requirements. - Build an application using Cursor and AI-assisted development, and design workflows that combine AI assistance with quality checks for your team. This course is designed for software developers, application engineers, frontend and backend developers, DevOps professionals, early-career developers, and anyone new to AI-assisted development. If you're new to Cursor or new to AI in development, you're in the right place. You should have basic experience writing code in any language such as Python, JavaScript, or Java. Familiarity with Git and command line is helpful, along with a willingness to practice and learn by doing. Enroll now and learn how to write code with AI assistance. Start with the basics.
