Intro

This is the beginner project we'll build together over the rest of the series: QR Studio, a real web application put together with a coding agent and deployed for actual users at the end. Nothing about it is a toy demo. It has accounts, a database and a live URL, which means you'll run into the same decisions you'd face on any real build. This first lesson gives you the tour so you know exactly where we're heading before we write a line of code.

What you'll walk away with:

What QR Studio is, who it's for, and why it's a good first project to build with an agent
The features the app will ship with by the time we're done
How user accounts and saved QR codes change the shape of the project, turning a single-page tool into a proper application
Choosing a technology stack that suits the job instead of picking whatever is popular
Where authentication and a database fit in, and why they arrive when they do
The path from running it on your own machine to having it live on the internet

Start here, then follow the lessons in order. Each one adds a piece to the same app.
