Module 4 of 5Lesson 1 of 2~20 min
Iterate in small, checked steps
Asking a coding agent for ten changes at once is a good way to break everything. This lesson teaches you to evolve your app in small, controlled steps, review what the agent has changed and roll back with Git whenever a change does not work the way you wanted.
Lesson objective
By the end of this lesson, you will be able to evolve your app in short iterations (observe, describe, have it made, check, commit), review what the agent changed and go back to a previous version with Git.
Topics covered
- iteration
- Git
- commit
- rollback
- coding agent
Where it fits
Iterate, debug and review
How do I evolve the tool without breaking it, and know whether it is ready to share?
Lessons in this module
- Iterate in small, checked steps (this lesson)
- Debug methodically and review before sharing
What you will learn in this module
This lesson is part of the course Build and ship a web app with an AI coding agent
- Evolve and debug the application in small, checked, committed iterations, giving the agent the right context (symptom, steps, error message).
- Review the generated app before sharing it (behavior, edge cases, secrets, personal data, experience) and decide whether to ship, fix or stop.
