Ever wish you had a senior engineer sitting next to you, helping you navigate complex code and fix bugs in real-time? Welcome to the era of Agentic IDEs.
Join us on Saturday, March 7th, at 9:30 AM for a hands-on workshop featuring Kiro, an AI-powered "agentic" IDE designed to do more than just autocomplete your - it helps you build entire features.
What we’ll cover:
- Vibe Coding vs. Spec-Driven Development: Learn how to start with a creative "vibe" and then refine it into rigorous technical specifications.
- The Architect’s Workflow: Watch Kiro generate design documents, architecture diagrams, and property-based tests before a single line of application code is written.
- Guiding the Agent: Use "Steering Docs" (like Python PEP guides and accessibility standards) to ensure your AI agent follows best practices, not just the easiest path.
- The Implementation Loop: Execute an automated task list, manage "Agent Hooks," and see how to iterate using inline chat and checkpoints.
By the end of this morning, you won't just have a working app; you’ll have a new mental framework for how to build software in the age of AI agents.
Prerequisites:
1. Bring your laptop.
2. Sign up for an AWS Builder ID (it’s free).
3. Install the Kiro IDE before you arrive.
Bring your laptop and let’s build something together!
