**What is ChatGPT?**

ChatGPT is a powerful AI language model created by OpenAI that can understand and respond to text inputs like a human. It has been trained on vast amounts of text data, making it a versatile tool for various language-based applications.

**What are you going to work on?**

Throughout the course, you will gain experience developing a Next JS application from the ground up. Additionally, you'll receive instruction on integrating OpenAI's ChatGPT to create a chatbot application that enables users to ask the AI any questions about a specific technology stack, such as a library, framework, or programming language that will be taught in the course. The ultimate goal of the course is to equip you with the skills necessary to create a functional chatbot app.

A big portion of the course is preparing the application layout, improving user experience, and getting everything together from scratch. Every part of the course is skippable, with the option to download the version of the project from any stage of the course.

The course covers a text completion from OpenAI, mostly used for Chatbots. The course doesn't focus on covering every topic of chatGPT but rather provides a practical development guide on how to integrate a bot into the Next JS application. 

**The course can be briefly summarized in these points:**

*   Layout preparation - Several lectures are provided to prepare the application layout, with everything built from scratch. Each lecture is optional and can be skipped.

*   Components - Code parts are organized into components for better management.

*   API Route -An API route is established to handle user queries and provide ChatGPT's response.

*   ChatGPT - ChatGPT is initially integrated with a simple setup.

*   ChatGPT parameters - The parameters that influence AI decisions are explained.

*   Markdown - The response generated by ChatGPT is formatted in Markdown.

*   Sessions - Although the course doesn't cover authentication, different user scenarios are simulated using sessions/cookies.

*   In-memory DB -  The application uses lowDB as an in-memory database for data storage.

*   AI memory  - Chat history is stored in an in-memory database, enabling the AI model to access more context.

*   Personalize AI - Each chatbot has a unique personality and specific knowledge of a framework.

*   Deployment - The application will be deployed on Vercel.

**Is this course right for you?**

This course covers creating two applications with Svelte and minimal 3rd party dependencies. Almost every feature is made from scratch without any dependency package. This covers - Form Validation, Pagination, Modal, Popups,  Snackbar, and more.

The course covers the explanation of  Svelte by working on actual projects. This course will give you the confidence and skills required to start any project.

Students should have basic javascript knowledge to start working on this course.

**What is Svelte?**

Svelte is a radical new approach to building user interfaces. Whereas traditional frameworks like React and Vue do the bulk of their work in the browser, Svelte shifts that work into a compile step that happens when you build your app.

Instead of using techniques like virtual DOM diffing, Svelte writes code that surgically updates the DOM when the state of your app changes.

**What are you going to work on?**

The first application explains base Svelte features by working on the real project - Trello clone application.

In the second application, students will build a Twitter-like app from scratch - the HTML layout part is not part of the course (This will be provided in the course materials to save time and focus purely on  Svelte). The focus of this course is coding and not writing HTML content. 

The course starts with the preparation of the base layout of the application. All designs - images, and content are provided by the instructor.

**Content can be briefly summarized in these points:**

**Layout preparation** - A few lectures to prepare the HTML for your application. Separation of layout into the Svelte components. 

**Template syntax** - Use special syntax inside of HTML

**Directives & Events** - Value binding of variables.

**Svelte Kit Routing** - This part explains creating a "multi-page" application. Students will learn how to create a routing with different routing strategies and navigation to the routes. 

**Reactivity** - Explains how to create and manage reactive data

**Lifecycle function** - How to use onMount and onDestroy

**Stores** - More complex reactive data

**Transitions** - Fancy effects with Svelte

**Auth Forms** - Students will learn how to create a reactive form and bind the data to form inputs.

**Custom Form Validation** - Covers creating a custom input/form validation and error handling from scratch.

**Firebase/Firestore** - Initialization of Firebase application (data storage)

**Hook Functions** - Important part of the projects. Allows the feature-related code to be separated into its context. 

**Authentication** - This part covers creating a login, register, and logout functionality. Students will learn how to authenticate a user upon the application visit.

**Provider and Context** - This creates a provider component, which can hold the data on the root level and provide them to underlying components. 

**Snackbars** - App-wise functionality created with Provider to display any message as a toast popup.

**Glide Creation** - Covers how to create a new glide and display it on the main page. From this point on, students will often work with Firebase/Firestore.

**Follow Functionality** - Follow functionality allows users to subscribe to other users. 

**Display Glides from Following** - Subscription (Following) to other users will allow seeing the Glides (messages) they post.

**Paginate Glides** - It would be inefficient to fetch/display all of the glides on the initial load. Students will learn how to implement their lazy loaded pagination when data are loaded as the users browse the application.

**Create Sub-Glides** - It's essential to have a way to respond to glides. This feature enables a user to create subglides, which is an answer to the glide.

**Modal Messenger** - Students will learn how to create a modal component from scratch. This will be used to display a messenger component on any page.

**Deployment to Vercel** - Finally, the application will be live hosted on Vercel. Anybody on the internet will be able to visit your application.

While working on the features above, the students will learn and understand Svelte features. They will know how to architecture applications and will be able to create their applications with Svelte.

**Is this course right for you?**

This course covers creating a Twitter-like application with Solid JS and minimal 3rd party dependencies. Almost every feature is made from scratch without any dependency package. This covers - Form Validation, Pagination, Modal, Popups,  Snackbar, and more.

The course covers the explanation of Solid JS library API by working on an actual project. This course will give you the confidence and skills required to start any project.

Students should have basic javascript knowledge to start working on this course.

**What is Solid JS?**

Solid JS is a reactive UI library inspired by React JS. It utilizes Component-like architecture, reactive data binding, and JSX. 

Every Component executes once, and the Hooks and bindings execute many times as their dependencies update.

Solid follows the same philosophy as React with unidirectional data flow, read/write segregation, and immutable interfaces. It, however, has an entirely different implementation that forgoes using a Virtual DOM.

**What is Typescript?**

TypeScript is an open-source language that builds on JavaScript, one of the world's most used tools, by adding static type definitions.

**What is Typescript?**

TypeScript is an open-source language that builds on JavaScript, one of the world's most used tools, by adding static type definitions.

**Is this course right for you?**

This course covers creating a personal application (blogs, portfolios) without needing third-party dependencies - databases or cms. Create a personal app with search functionality deployed to Vercel.

The course doesn't explain Next Js/React Js specific functions.

This course will give you the confidence and skills required to start your project.

**What are you going to work on?**

You will build a personal application from scratch. You will learn how to write code in Typescript language - a superset of Javascript providing additional features and a static type checker.

The focus of this course is coding and not writing HTML content. The course starts with the preparation of the base layout of the application. All design - images, and content are provided by the instructor.

After the layout is prepared, the students will work on the functionality to access and fetch the local data stored in markdown files.

Students will learn to work with a file system - fs package in this part. The content of the files is retrieved as a string of data.

To get the formatted data, students will learn how to parse "frontmatter" metadata and the markdown content from the file.

The fetched content is then provided to the pages and displayed in the application.

After the content part is finished, students will start working on the search functionality. All content presented on the website can be searched via the input component provided in the navigation bar.

The course covers using all the content to build a local search index stored as a JSON file. This JSON file is then fed as a data source to the search component.

Students will work on the portfolios feature when the search functionality is finished. The portfolios feature will be very similar to the blogs. Portfolios are also kept as markdown data, which means lots of implementation is shared with the blogs.

The last part of the course covers deployment to the Vercel platform.

**What is Unity?**

Unity is a cross-platform game engine. The Unity editor is supported on Windows, macOS, and the Linux platform. In contrast, the engine currently supports building games for over 25 platforms, including mobile, desktop, consoles, and virtual reality.

**What are we going to build?**

The course covers the development of one production-ready game. The type of game is 2D survival with a top-down view.

**Project - Undead Survival**

The main effort of this course is to show the viewer how to build a complete game from scratch. The game's goal is to survive as long as possible with infinite waves of enemies coming at the game protagonist.

The most important parts of the course are:

**Scriptable Objects**

Scriptable objects will be essential in creating the Statemachine, Ability system, and Action delegation. Scriptable objects make the project reusable and modular.

**State Machine**

Statemachine is the brain of the AI system. Every NPC can have different states (run, attack ...), while only one state can be active at a time. Every state can have multiple actions. Action is the behavior.

For example, the Enemy has a "Patrol" state. A patrol state can have two actions. One action is to provide movement to the enemy. Another action is to change the animation of the enemy to the walk.

The third component of the Statemachine is a condition. Condition is a boolean statement. When the statement or multiple statements are resolved as "true" the current state can be transited to the new one.

For example, if an enemy is in the "patrol" state and the "spot player condition" is resolved as "true", then an enemy can go to the "attack" state.

Enemies will have a straightforward state machine. More complex state machines will be applied to boss entities.

**Ability System**

A player and enemies can have different abilities. Each ability has stats, such as damage, cooldown, range, effect, and many others. Each ability is created as a scriptable object, which can be easily reused and changed to the required needs. There are two main types of abilities, passive and active ones. Passive ones are the abilities that are played automatically at a specific interval. Active ones need to be activated by some external input, such as a key-stroke of the player.

**Other Parts**

The course also covers other essential topics such as the spawning mechanism for the enemies, the UI system to display applied damage, game time, and other vital stats. There is also damage and health system. Next, the course covers the creation of the start/options menu with the options to navigate and choose different protagonists. The game is finished when the hero dies. When this happens, the score screen is displayed, and the game can be replayed infinitely.

Many other smaller topics will be covered in the course.

**Main Goal**

The main goal of the course is to teach how to create reusable systems that can be used in different games. The course focuses on the reusability of each component.
