AI Heroes

Developers are increasingly looking for ways to leverage LLMs not just as chat interfaces, but as integrated partners in the software development lifecycle. **Gemini CLI Conductor** represents a shift toward this “agentic” workflow, allowing developers to plan, implement, and iterate on full-stack applications through a unified, AI-native interface.

This hands-on workshop takes participants through the lifecycle of a modern application using the Gemini CLI Conductor extension. We will dive into:

* **Greenfield Development:** Building a “Picker Wheel” web application from scratch, moving from initial concept to a functional UI using AI-driven planning.
* **Brownfield Iteration:** Learning how to refine an existing codebase by adding complex features like authentication and persistent storage.
* **Firebase Integration:** Demonstrating how to seamlessly inject backend services into an AI-generated frontend to create a personalized user experience.

### Key Takeaways

* **AI Orchestration:** Understand how to use the Conductor extension to manage multi-step coding tasks that go beyond simple code completion.
* **Iterative Prompting:** Master the art of “planning-first” development, where the AI helps architect the solution before a single line of code is written.
* **Full-Stack Agility:** Learn how to rapidly prototype and harden applications by combining the power of Gemini with established platforms like Firebase and Node.js.

Defaulting to cloud APIs is no longer the only way to ship AI in iOS apps. This hands-on workshop dives into Apple Foundation Models, moving past theory to build privacy-first AI features directly into native apps.

We will focus on practical implementation: how to actually run these models, customize them for your specific domain, and empower them by providing external tools to enrich context and build truly smart, localized experiences. Requirements: MacBook, Apple Intelligence-compatible iPhone, and basic Swift/Xcode skills..

The usage of Artificial Intelligence in video game production has immediately sparked controversy linked to the notion of ‘AI sloppiness’ and the risk of undermining the entire creative process.

The workshop, however, aims to demonstrate in practical terms how Artificial Intelligence can be used to streamline prototyping and the range of complex tasks involved in product development.
Starting with the use of Claude Code and related tools, the workshop aims to give the audience a hands-on experience of the practical benefits of using AI in this field.
