Agentic Software Development: Vibecoding with Claude Code and Cursor

Artificial intelligence is shifting from a simple autocomplete tool to autonomous agents that can read, write, and refactor entire codebases. To stay competitive, modern developers must learn how to direct these agents effectively while keeping strict control of system architecture and code quality. This text-only course guides you from the foundational concepts of agentic development to managing real-world, multi-file programming workflows. You will transition from manual line-by-line coding to high-level system orchestration, using advanced AI tools to accelerate your development cycle. What you'll learn: Understand the core principles of agentic development and the shift toward intent-driven coding; Configure and navigate modern AI-native environments like Cursor and Claude Code; Manage codebase context efficiently to ensure AI agents generate accurate, relevant code; Delegate complex tasks like debugging, refactoring, and test generation to autonomous agents; Implement robust validation strategies to maintain control over code quality and software architecture; Apply prompt engineering techniques tailored specifically for agentic workflows. The course begins with foundational definitions of agentic workflows before moving into practical text-based walkthroughs of feature implementation, debugging, and testing. You will explore real-world scenarios, learning how to review, refine, and safely integrate agent-generated code into your projects. This program is designed for software developers and tech enthusiasts of all levels who want to modernize their workflow. No prior experience with AI coding agents is required, though a basic understanding of programming concepts is recommended.
