A One-Day Hands On Training Experience on Gen AI Applications

An immersive, hands-on technical bootcamp designed for engineers who want to dive into the AI era. Participants will learn LLM fundamentals, set up local models (Ollama, LM Studio), and build their first generative AI web application using TypeScript, Vercel AI SDK, Next.js, and Shadcn UI components. The session covers Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and tool integration, empowering attendees to code and deploy their own GenAI apps in one day—all running on their local machines.

By day’s end, every participant will have a working AI application running on their local machine—ready to extend and deploy to production.
