AI for App Deployment

Vibe coding is the practice of using plain, everyday language to build applications with the help of AI. Simply describe what you want to build, and AI handles the code generation behind the scenes - so you don't need to have any coding experience in order to create a working app.

If you can describe it, you can build it! Think about tasks you do often, especially ones that are slow, repetitive, or easy to get wrong, and try vibe coding to build a tool to help you solve it.

In this course, you will begin by brainstorming an idea for an app that solves a real problem for you. Then you’ll build it by planning, testing and debugging, and sharing it with others.

Through expert-led videos, you will learn core vibe coding steps in the context of three apps:

• Project manager: Track how a single delay changes your entire schedule and launch date.
• Storyboard creator: Turn video ideas into organized, step-by-step visual plans.
• Sales dashboard: Clean up messy spreadsheet data and display instant trends with an interactive AI assistant.

Learn the ins and outs of vibe coding, building an app using everyday language. You’ll gain hands-on experience developing a functional, personalized tool that you can share with anyone, by following these steps:

• Plan your app: How to brainstorm, plan, and spot hidden flaws in your app, ensuring your tool has a solid foundation.
• Test and debug your app: Techniques to test and troubleshoot so you can investigate errors and keep your app running.
• Deploy your app: Best practices on making your app user-friendly so it can be shared with others.

You’ll leave the course with a custom app of your own and the reusable framework to transform any future ideas into a working, shareable app.

In this course, you’ll learn how to vibe code using Google AI Studio, but you are welcome to use any AI tool you are comfortable with.

You’ll learn how to build a custom AI app using Google AI Studio (which is accessible free of charge), or you are free to use any comparable AI tool of your choice. As part of the certificate, we’re providing a complimentary three-month trial subscription access to Google AI Pro, so you can gain hands-on experience with Google’s most advanced models.

This new course, AI for App Deployment, is the eighth course in the Google AI Professional Certificate. It helps anyone become a builder by going beyond one-shot prompts to creating robust, shareable apps. No previous coding experience is required.

You can enroll in this course individually or as part of the Google AI Professional Certificate.

Yes, you can share your vibe coded app with others, but the transition from a personal tool to one that can be used by someone else requires some work. To share your app with confidence, you need to trust that it will perform reliably for everyone. In this course, you’ll learn how to add features to make your app user-friendly, and safeguards so that anyone using your app gets reliable results on their own.

Always check your organization's specific policies to confirm that you are using an approved, secure environment before sharing apps, especially if they handle sensitive or confidential data.

By enrolling in the Google AI Professional Certificate, you get a complimentary three month trial subscription to Google AI Pro. You can use this trial to complete the hands-on activities that require Google AI Pro. Terms apply.
