Choose your start

Two paths, one long project. Learn the basics first or jump into the first Reddit phase.

Start here

I am new to coding

Learn ChatGPT, Codex, terminal basics, Git, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and the first local project.

Skip ahead

I know the basics

Begin the 90-day MVP: a logged-out Reddit-like homepage powered by PostgreSQL and a Go API.

AI builder roadmap

Build only what the current stage can teach.

  1. Basics

    One folder, one prompt, one page running on localhost.

  2. First Reddit MVP

    React, Vite, Go, PostgreSQL, seeded posts, comments, accounts, and deployment.

  3. Real product

    Communities, moderation, search, media, notifications, and operational habits.

  4. Scale when hot

    Indexes, caching, queues, telemetry, replicas, partitioning, and service boundaries.

The AI coding loop

Prompt, run, read the error, paste it back.

Learn enough to steer Codex, understand the failure, and know what to ask next.

  1. run the app
  2. open the browser console
  3. check the Go server terminal
  4. paste the exact error into Codex
  5. ask for the smallest fix

Personal coaching

Choose your first project or get unstuck.

Andrew Arrow helps beginners and operators turn vague AI app ideas into small working projects, cleaner prompts, and a practical local workflow.

Learning by building

The site starts with beginner setup because that is where most people get blocked. The long project turns those basics into real computer science concepts. You don't need to master everything before you begin.
