Book Description
A beginner-friendly guide to building real apps with AI, without coding.
Written by experts building AI coding tools and modern developer platforms, this hands-on guide shows you how to turn ideas into working products using TRAE SOLO, Cursor, Supabase, Figma, and Vercel. Without getting stuck in theory, you’ll learn by building through short, focused challenges and two complete, end-to-end projects.
You’ll start with the fundamentals of AI-assisted development and quickly move into creating real applications. Along the way, you’ll learn how to think like a builder: breaking down ideas, prompting effectively, and iterating toward working solutions.
At the heart of this book is the concept of the Frugal Full Stack, a practical approach to building applications efficiently using low-cost tools, without unnecessary complexity or overengineering.
