Objective: Students will install all necessary tools, configure their environment, and learn AI coding basics to be ready to build a website from lesson 2 onward.

Build Websites Fast with AI - Everyone Can Do It

AI is changing the way the world builds websites and apps. You don't need to be a programmer — just describe what you want, and AI can turn it into a working website in hours.

What AI does

• Figures out exactly what pages and features your website needs

• Writes all the words and builds every page for you

• Makes sure buttons, sign-ups, and purchases actually work

• Reviews everything and walks you through going live

Why it matters

• Faster: days instead of weeks

• Cheaper: less repetitive work

• Anyone can create: just give instructions in plain language

Real-world proof: Google now uses AI to write 25% of its new code, helping engineers build products faster.
