Coding Using AI

Description:

This immersive 3-hour hands-on training explores how AI-powered coding tools enhance software development. Participants will start with a foundational understanding of AI in coding, followed by a hands-on exploration of free AI coding assistants such as GitHub Copilot (Free Tier), Codeium, and Tabnine. Through instructor-led exercises, attendees will apply AI for code generation, debugging, optimization, and documentation. The session includes a step-by-step setup, practical use cases, and strategies for integrating AI into everyday coding workflows. By the end of this training, participants will be able to leverage AI tools to enhance coding efficiency, reduce errors, and accelerate development—all without requiring a paid subscription.

Learning Objectives:

After this training, participants will be able to:

1. Describe how AI-powered coding tools assist in software development.
2. Explore and set up free AI coding assistants for hands-on coding tasks.
3. Apply AI tools for code completion, debugging, and performance optimization.
4. Evaluate the strengths and limitations of different AI coding assistants.
