I'm adding a bit more structure to the AI in development module here. The idea was inspired by @hosseinzahed and the content he teaches in his work with copilot .

The idea here is to teach how to use AI in a very practical sense of being a developer in the day-to-day.

It's very example/exercise based. Most of the exercises are missing for now, I have just created the skeleton.

What I would like feedback on:

  1. Is this a good structure for the module?
  2. Are there any key examples/themes missing?
  3. Does this feel like too little/the right amount/too much content for the session?

I like the holistic view,
I think we have enough material (when the exercises are added) for a nice session that will balance exercises and hopefully instructive discussions.
personally, and for some reason, I expected a bit more on agents and agentic use of AI. but I will trust you and the curriculum crew on this.
Thank you again for another valuable addition :)

@siderdk It's a really good point, thanks for raising it. I think teaching agents (ie. building them) could be really valuable, but i think we'd need another session at least. Maybe we should teach it as a masterclass first, as a test?

Either way, I have added an "agent mode" exercise, to at least introduce the concept of agents and how that workflow looks.

Alright, i fixed some linting and added a little bit more text to clarify things. So i will merge this now, and continue the todos in further PRs.
