Boost your coding with AI—guide your coding assistant to write, test, and document code effectively.
AI is transforming the way developers write, debug, and maintain code. From generating functions to improving documentation and catching bugs, AI coding assistants can dramatically boost productivity—if you know how to prompt them effectively. This course teaches you the art and science of prompt engineering for coding, giving you the tools to harness AI responsibly and efficiently.
You’ll begin by exploring how large language models (LLMs) support software development. Learn the fundamentals of prompt engineering, how context shapes AI outputs, and how to iteratively refine prompts for more accurate, reliable results.
Next, you’ll practice advanced prompting strategies for debugging, documentation, and test generation. You’ll also discover how to guide models to improve security, ensuring your AI-assisted workflows avoid common vulnerabilities and support best practices in software development.
Finally, you’ll evaluate different models to choose the right tool for each task, balance speed, cost, and quality, and apply guardrails to ensure safe and ethical AI use. By the end, you’ll be able to leverage AI-powered coding assistants securely and tailor them to your needs.
