🔧 Zero to Builder: 100 Days of AI-Assisted Coding

Learn to code. Build real projects. Let AI be your mentor.

Welcome to Zero to Builder, a hands-on Substack series guiding you through 100 days of learning how to develop software with AI tools by your side.

Whether you're a total beginner or someone who's tried to learn coding but got stuck, this series is for you. You’ll learn Python fundamentals, web development, automation, and even a bit of machine learning—all with the help of AI tools like ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, Cusor AI, and others that make the process faster, less frustrating, and more fun.


🧠 What You’ll Get:

  • Daily bite-sized lessons: Learn just enough each day to keep moving forward.

  • Real projects: Build apps, analyze data, and ship something real.

  • AI best practices: Learn how to use AI as your coding assistant—not your crutch.

  • Weekly Office Hours: Recaps, Q&A, and practical takeaways every Friday.


💡 Why This Series?

Most coding bootcamps teach you like it’s still 2015. This series embraces how developers actually work today—collaborating with AI, iterating fast, and shipping often. You’ll not only learn how to code, but how to think like a builder in the age of AI.
