Lesson 1 — read it free, no signup

This is the real first lesson, not a sample.

The whole journey, on one page 🗺️

By the end of this course you will have a real website live on the internet, built with an AI helper. Here is the whole road, start to finish — five simple stops.

1. Idea 💡 2. Plan 📝 3. Build with AI 🤖 4. Domain + Host 🌐 5. Live site ✅

The rupee-honest truth: two things normally cost money on this road. First, the AI plan — a paid monthly subscription (the bigger cost, roughly Rs 1700+ a month) if you do not already have one. Second, the domain name (your site address) — rented yearly, often Rs 500 to 1500. The hosting is free, and HTTPS is free and automatic.

What "building a website with AI" really means

You will not learn to type code by hand. Instead you describe what you want in plain language — "make a one-page portfolio with my name, a photo and a contact link" — and an agentic coding tool like Claude Code or Codex writes the actual HTML, CSS and JavaScript for you.

But the AI is not the boss — you are. You decide what to build, you read and test what it makes, and you tell it what to fix. The AI is the fast hands; the judgement stays with you.

💡 Honest expectations: AI is a fast, capable junior helper, not magic. It makes mistakes, you check every step, and a real first site can take an afternoon — not five minutes.

Who you are in all this: the operator

Think of yourself as the operator, or the boss, of a very fast helper. Your job is to plan clearly, give good instructions, and check the work. That skill — not coding — is what this course builds.

You will meet a few new words along the way. Here is a friendly preview so nothing feels scary later:

  • Domain — your site address, like skillthegap.com (rented yearly).
  • Host — the place on the internet where your site files live.
  • Deploy — putting your files on the host so the site goes live.
  • Prompt — the plain-language instruction you give the AI.
  • Terminal — a plain text window where you type commands; your AI tool runs here.
  • Install — a one-time setup that puts the AI tool onto your computer.
  • CLI — a command-line tool: a program you run by typing, not by clicking.
💡 Do this now: make a project folder on your laptop and write one line describing your site idea — before the next lesson.
