Unlock AI Coding with Workflow-Driven, Tuned Prompt Chains 🔑

In this tutorial, we’re diving into a systematic approach to building software with AI, introducing you to a workflow-driven system powered by highly tuned prompt chains. This method is inspired by real-world software engineering practices, where repeatable workflows guide each step, enabling you to fully leverage AI coding assistants for streamlined, productive development. In this video, we’ll build on the AI-powered brainstorming and journaling app we started in the last tutorial. Even if you don’t want to build that app, you’ll see that you can use this same workflow prompt chain to build new features into any app. Through a series of prompts that feed into one another, we’ll show you how to plan, prioritize, and implement new features in a repeatable process. By the end, you’ll have an adaptable workflow and prompt chain system to help make AI coding easier, more effective, and scalable. In This Video: • Recap of Previous Tutorial: Reviewing initial setup, prompt libraries, and core concepts • New Workflow Chain Approach: Building a structured process with interlinked prompts • Step-by-Step Execution: From prioritizing features to breaking down tasks and coding them with aider and Cody • Practical Debugging: Fixing bugs mid-process using AI tools and sharing contextual feedback • Clean-Up & Optimization: Removing unused elements and enhancing the codebase iteratively By the end, you’ll see how this workflow-driven approach - centered around prompt chains - transforms AI coding assistants into powerful development partners.
