About this event

Modern software development is shifting from writing code line-by-line to guiding AI assistants. Welcome to the era of Vibe Coding!

In this hands-on workshop, we will dive into Gemini CLI (Command Line Interface), an open-source AI agent that brings the power of Gemini directly into your terminal. You will learn how to configure and interact with the CLI, use its built-in tools, and explore how to supercharge its capabilities using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to connect with external data sources.

By the end of this session, you'll understand how to use natural language prompts to generate, refine and debug applications seamlessly. Whether you are a seasoned developer or a complete beginner, join us to learn how to think about the big picture while AI handles the code.

What We'll Cover:

  • Configuring and interacting with the CLI

  • Utilizing built-in tools and toggling Shell Mode

  • Introduction to Model Context Protocol (MCP) server configuration

  • Building and deploying applications using Vibe Coding workflows
