StartLesson 0 · Start here: Northgate's challenge

Before you start

About 26 minutes · 5 steps
What you'll do
Hear the problem this course solves, read Northgate Bank's brief, write down how you'd build their assistant today, and get the course code running.
Why it matters
Every later lesson builds one piece of this assistant. Knowing the goal first makes each piece make sense, and your Day 1 note shows how far you've come by the end of the course.
What you'll walk away with
  • The five things Northgate wants from its assistant
  • Your Day 1 design note, saved in your copy of the code
  • The course code running in your browser (and on your machine, if you set it up)
What “done” looks like
  • Your Day 1 note has at least 20 words
  • You've run the setup check. Most tests fail at this point, and that's expected

Already know the brief? Write your Day 1 note later; setting up the code is the part the next lesson needs.
