AI-native development represents a modern approach to building software where artificial intelligence is integrated throughout product planning, coding, testing, and delivery. This course introduces the principles, tools, and workflows that help teams use AI as an active part of the software development process.
Learners explore AI-assisted product planning, requirements, architecture, code generation, natural-language iteration, refactoring, interfaces, backend services, databases, APIs, and AI-powered features. The curriculum also covers coding agents, task delegation, agent context, multi-step development, automated testing, debugging, vulnerability detection, and quality engineering.
Security and engineering practices remain central throughout the course, including secrets protection, sensitive data management, dependencies, licensing, version control, and human oversight. Through structured projects, learners build AI-native applications, develop AI-powered features, work with coding agents, test and refine software, and create repeatable AI-native development workflows.
