Conquering Code Everest: Let AI Be Your Sherpa

Adam Matłacz

9:30-12:30 CEST, Tuesday 3rd June

“I don’t need to train; I’ll just helicopter to the summit!” – Overconfident coders in 2025, discovering AI coding assistants.

Scaling the heights of complex code can feel as daunting as climbing Everest without a map. Some believe that AI coding assistants are a shortcut to the top – a helicopter ride to the summit. But in reality, they’re more like a seasoned Sherpa, guiding you through the treacherous paths while you make the climb yourself.

In this half-day tutorial, we’ll start at Base Camp, transforming a project idea into reality. With AI tools, you’ll set up repositories and your development environment, laying the foundation for the journey ahead. As we ascend the slopes, you’ll learn how AI helps build a simple yet robust architecture by providing suggestions and automating boilerplate code, accelerating your progress. At Mid-Camp, we’ll tackle cloud deployment. AI will guide you through configurations that often leave developers stuck.

We’ll then climb higher, expanding your project with new features. AI becomes an invaluable ally, helping you refactor and improve functionality while maintaining quality. Finally, we’ll make the summit push with code reviews, where AI acts as your lookout, ensuring best practices before you plant your flag at the peak. By the end, you’ll have conquered your own Code Everest, equipped with practical AI skills to integrate into your workflow.

An AI coding assistant won’t replace your expertise, but like a Sherpa, it makes the journey achievable and rewarding. Join me and gain hands-on experience with AI tools, automate the mundane, and focus on the exciting parts of coding – problem-solving and innovation. Let’s conquer Code Everest with an AI coding assistant as your Sherpa.
