PRODUCT TYPE Paperback (Paperback)

Description

AI is transforming software development, shifting programmers from writing code to collaborating with AI in an intent-driven workflow. Vibe coding--a prompt-first, exploratory approach where you describe what you want in natural language and let a large language model fill in the blanks--represents a radical shift in the developer's role from writing code todirecting it. However, vibe coding comes with a serious caveat: Like a high-speed exploratory vehicle, it can take you off the beaten path quickly. Beyond Vibe Coding: From Coder to AI-Era Developer explores how AI-powered coding assistants like GitHub Copilot and OpenAI Codex are reshaping the way we build software, from automating routine coding tasks to influencing architecture and design decisions.

Written by Addy Osmani, this guide provides developers, tech leads, and organizations with practical strategies to integrate AI into their workflows effectively. Learn how to formulate clear goals and constraints for the AI, review AI-generated code critically, and integrate those pieces into a coherent whole. Whether you're adopting AI tools today or preparing for the future of software engineering, this book offers insights and hands-on examples to keep your skills sharp in this evolving landscape.

  • Understand how AI-assisted development is reshaping programming
  • Master techniques for refining, validating, and debugging AI-generated code, and understand how and why LLM generations can go wrong
  • Explore multiagent coding systems and AI-driven software workflows
  • Future-proof your career by adapting to AI's growing role in development
