Part 2: Skills
The techniques that make you effective.
Now that you understand the fundamentals, it's time to develop the skills that separate struggling beginners from effective builders.
These five chapters teach you the practical techniques:
- How to break down overwhelming tasks
- How to write prompts that actually work
- How to communicate when things go wrong
- How to give AI the information it needs
- How to know when to cut your losses
These aren't abstract concepts—they're practical skills you'll use in every coding session.
