Generative AI for Developers

A code-first workshop on building real applications with generative models. Go beyond prompting and learn to integrate LLMs into software using APIs and modern tools like Genkit.

Level

Intermediate to Advanced

For

Grades 9-12

Duration

3-Day or 5-Day

What You Will Master

LLM APIs and SDKs

Learn to interact with models like Gemini programmatically using official software development kits.

Structured Output (JSON Mode)

Force LLMs to return clean, predictable JSON, making them reliable components in a larger system.

AI Safety & Guardrails

Implement programmatic checks and safety filters to ensure your AI application behaves responsibly.

Full-Stack AI Development

Use Next.js for the frontend and Genkit for the backend to build a complete, modern AI application.

The Capstone Project

AI-Powered Content Summarizer & Tagger

Build a web application that takes a long piece of text (like an article) and uses an LLM to generate a concise summary and a list of relevant keyword tags. This project requires forcing structured JSON output and showcases a practical, real-world use case for LLMs in software.

Key Transformation

Build and deploy a functional web application that uses a Large Language Model to perform a specific task, understanding the full development lifecycle.

Course Syllabus

1
Session 1: The AI Developer Mindset

Learn to think of LLMs as powerful, non-deterministic components in a larger system. Set up your development environment with Genkit.

2
Session 2: Interacting with Models via Code

Make your first API calls to an LLM. Learn about temperature, top-k, and other parameters that control model behavior.

3
Session 3: Ensuring Reliability with JSON Mode

Define Zod schemas to force the LLM to return perfectly structured JSON, and build a simple backend flow.

4
Session 4: Building the Frontend & Deployment

Create a React/Next.js frontend to interact with your AI backend, and deploy the full-stack application to the web.
