Vibe Coding: Use AI & Python to Automate and Prototype Ideas
What you'll learn
- Use AI prompts to create personal tools without learning to code
- Unlock the power of python libraries and APIs for automation
- Automate emails, text, spreadsheets, transcriptions, web crawling, browsing, voice cloning, and much, much more
- Understand how to prompt to get the result you want
Requirements
- No experience needed. It's all in plain English.
- Coding experience helps to "get it" at a deeper level
Description
Use AI and Python to build real tools, fast — even if you don’t consider yourself a developer.
This course teaches Vibe Coding and Context Engineering — a modern way to build automations, scrapers, and creative prototypes using LLMs and Python. You’ll use AI as your coding assistant, so you can focus on what you want to build — not how to write the code from scratch.
=> If you’re willing to experiment, prompt smartly, and learn by doing — this course is for you.
=> Watch everything in one go, then start tinkering!
You’ll learn to:
Prompt LLMs to write and debug working Python code
Build tools that automate boring tasks (emails, spreadsheets, etc.)
Explore powerful APIs like OpenAI, Google, Pytube, and more
Make small creative apps: scrapers, games, voice clones, image stylizers, etc.
Run code in Google Colab (zero install) or locally via VS Code (guided setup)
This course is for:
Ex-coders or devs returning after a break
Product people, freelancers, or creators who want to automate and prototype
Curious learners who like to tinker and learn by doing
People who don’t want to “learn to code” — just use AI to get things done
Not for:
Absolute beginners who don’t know what a folder is
IT professionals seeking secure or production-ready code
People who want a structured Python programming course with theory and quizzes
Corporate learners who can’t run unverified scripts in their environment
If that’s you, no hard feelings — there are better courses out there for your needs.
What You’ll Build:
Automations for Google Sheets, Gmail, and more
Web scrapers and browser automation scripts
Voice clones, speech-to-text, text-to-speech
Downloaders for YouTube videos and audio
Studio Ghibli-style image stylization (yes, really!)
A playable Flappy Bird clone — powered by AI-generated code
Instant data visualizations, summarizers, and more
What You’ll Learn:
How to think like a “context engineer” — shaping prompts to guide AI
How to troubleshoot using ChatGPT and error messages
How to safely experiment with new tools and APIs
How to unlock creativity with a technical toolbox (even if you’re non-technical)
What learners say:
“I used to code decades ago… this course was liberating. I built dozens of small tools in a weekend.”
“Loved the fast-paced, hands-on style. Super practical and inspiring.”
“This course keeps giving me ideas — I even built a member app for my fencing club in between lessons!”
Tech setup notes:
You’ll get guidance for both Google Colab (easy, no install) and VS Code (more flexible, more powerful)
You’ll learn how to run AI-generated code safely, and how to judge when not to
Projects use real-world tools and data — nothing simulated
You won’t master Python here — but you will build working things fast.
Who this course is for:
- People without coding experience who want to unlease the power of AI-led coding for work and play
- Experienced coders who want to experience the bleeding edge
- Product managers who want to learn how to prototype things themselves and fast
Instructor
I started dabbling in Python on Udemy by taking Al Sweigart's course "Automate the Boring Stuff with Python Programming" after a friend's mom completed it.
After ChatGPT came out I experienced first-hand the power of "vibe coding", which 10x my development speed. I realized it also made coding accessible to non-programmers with a much easier learning curve.
This skill is too useful to give it a pass, and after sharing my discoveries with friends and colleagues, I decided to create a course accessible to everyone.
