50% Milestone

Congratulations, you just made it through about half of our curriculum deck! 🎉

We've covered the basics of your future stack and are about to dive deeper in some more advanced topics.

One shift worth knowing about now: in a few cards the agent starts writing your code, and your job becomes directing and reviewing it. That is a bigger change than it sounds, and it's where a developer either becomes the person who makes an agent worth having — or a relay between their project lead and a chatbot, a meat proxy. Agentic coding basics is about being the first one.
