What's This Course About

Unlock the power of agentic AI by learning to build intelligent automation with Gemini CLI. This hands-on course takes you from foundational setup and configuration through to advanced workflow orchestration, equipping you with the skills to harness Google's open-source command-line AI tool for real-world productivity. You will master Gemini CLI's reasoning engine, learn to connect Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, extend capabilities with custom extensions, and automate critical development tasks such as pull request reviews and code improvements through GitHub Actions.

Go beyond the basics and build complete end-to-end AI workflows that deliver measurable results. From generating social media content from conference recordings to creating interactive data dashboards that combine local CSV files with cloud data sources, you will gain practical experience connecting Gemini CLI to local files, GitHub, Canva, Google Workspace, and cloud databases. Whether you are a developer looking to supercharge your coding workflow or a professional seeking to automate complex multi-step processes, this course delivers the practical, framework-spanning expertise that today's AI-driven industry demands.
