DESCRIPTION
AI-assisted development is moving beyond simply asking an AI
to
write code. AWS Kiro introduces a more structured approach to
software development, helping you plan, guide, automate, and
improve your development workflow with AI. Welcome to the
Complete AWS Kiro Course: AI-Assisted Coding Masterclass - a
practical, beginner-friendly course designed to take you from
your first interaction with Kiro through its most important
development workflows and capabilities. You don't need prior
Kiro experience. We'll work progressively through the Kiro IDE
and use a simple portfolio application to explore how these
tools work in practice. What You'll Learn? By the end of this
course, you'll be able to: Use Kiro for AI-assisted coding and
understand how an AI development environment differs from
traditional coding workflows. Prompt Kiro effectively to get
clearer, more useful results from AI-assisted development. Use
Steering to provide persistent project guidance, conventions,
and instructions to Kiro. Use Specs to transform an idea into
requirements, design, and actionable tasks before
implementation. Execute and manage Spec tasks, including
understanding the difference between required and optional
tasks. Create Agent Hooks that automatically respond to
development events and automate repetitive workflows. Connect
MCP servers to give Kiro access to additional tools and
external
knowledge. Use Powers to extend Kiro with specialized
capabilities and contextual knowledge. Work with Context7 to
provide Kiro with additional up-to-date technical context. Use
Kiro's practical workflows for planning changes, fixing bugs,
reviewing code, and generating documentation. Use QuickSpec to
quickly turn smaller feature ideas into implementation
workflows. Work with Git and GitHub directly as part of your
development workflow. Understand how to give Kiro the right
context and instructions for more effective results. A
Practical, Hands-On Approach. This course focuses on using
Kiro,
not simply talking about it. You'll see concepts demonstrated
directly in the Kiro environment and then apply them to a real
project. Rather than overwhelming you with a large
application,
we'll use a deliberately simple portfolio website so you can
focus on understanding Kiro and its workflows. You'll work
with?
Steering ? Specs ? Agent Hooks ? MCP ? Powers ? Kiro Workflows
?
Git & GitHub Each builds on the previous concepts, giving you
a
practical understanding of how Kiro can fit into a modern
development workflow. Who Is This Course For? This course is
suitable for: Developers interested in AI-assisted software
development Students and beginners who want to learn AWS Kiro
from the ground up Software professionals looking to explore
AI-
native development workflows Developers already using AI
coding
tools who want to understand a more structured approach Anyone
curious about how AWS Kiro can change the way software is
planned, developed, reviewed, and maintained You don't need to
be an AWS expert, and no prior Kiro experience is required.
Basic familiarity with HTML, CSS, Git, and using a code editor
will help you get the most from the hands-on activities. Start
Your Kiro Journey: By the end of the course, you won't just
know
what Kiro is ? you'll understand how to use its core
capabilities and workflows in practice. You'll have the
foundation to continue experimenting with Kiro, apply these
techniques to your own projects, and develop your own AI-
assisted coding workflows. Enroll now and start exploring a
more
structured way to build software with AWS Kiro.
