Introduction to AI-Assisted Coding: MCP Servers Hands-on Workshop

🎉 We're Back with Workshop #2!

After the amazing response to our "Introduction to AI-Assisted Coding" workshop, and so many of you asking for more, we bring you exactly what you wanted: a deep dive into MCP Servers! And once again, we're sponsoring $100 in AI credits for each attendee!

🤔 What's This Workshop About?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers are the game-changer you didn't know you needed. They transform your AI coding assistant from a smart autocomplete into a fully-integrated development powerhouse by giving your AI access to API of different tools.

Think of MCP servers as tools that extend your AI to use:

• Your GitHub repositories (browse, read, create issues, etc.)
• Your framework up-to-date documentation (no more stale responses)
• Your databases (query SQL and analyze without context switching)
• And much much more!

In this hands-on workshop, you'll go from "What's an MCP server?" to having powerful MCP servers enhancing your AI workflow - right on your laptop!
