Technical Enough

15 minutes a day for 21 days

Become technical enough to build real products with AI.

Created by Shivali and Girish Manghani

Every AI course says “you don't need to be technical to build with AI.” That's a half-truth. You don't need to write code, but you do need to understand how modern software actually gets built. AI tools assume you already know this. This course gives you that missing layer, so you can become dangerous enough to ship the thing.

3 weeks. 15 minutes a day. Zero code. Free.

The whole map

21 days, 15 minutes per day, one Build Plan at the end.

Every tile is clickable. Start anywhere if you want, but note that the lessons reference each other.

Why this exists

The missing layer.

The cream layers on top are what every AI course teaches. The seven dark layers underneath are the foundation every AI course assumes you already know. This course is the rose divider band between them, and the map of what's down there.
