What you will gain after the course

  • Specification design methodology with maintainability in mind

  • Techniques for Efficiently Refactoring Complex Source Code

  • Applying Change-Resistant Design Principles to Development Using AI Agents

How to Think About Creating Specifications

Who This Course Is Recommended For

Beginners who want to start developing their own projects


People who can create screens with vibe coding but cannot make corrections on their own

People who encounter a different problem every time they have AI make a revision

What you’ll be able to do after completing the course

  • You will be able to organize what to check when adding features or making revisions.

  • You will be able to clarify your target audience, their concerns, and which features should be created.


  • You will be able to compare the AI’s proposals with the specifications you created and distinguish between what is good or bad and what issues need to be addressed.

Course Features

By learning how to design specifications, you will aim to reach a state where you can continue developing together with AI, starting from generating ideas rather than merely memorizing formats.

Instructor Introduction

  • As an engineer, I have over four years of experience in team development.

  • Experienced in commissioned development, primarily for systems aimed at regional communities.

  • I struggled with code revisions and the characteristics of AI agents, which made me realize the importance of specification design.

  • An app is not finished once it has been created; it may also be continuously improved by adding features and making modifications.


Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Why do I need to learn about specifications?

Creating a specification does not guarantee that the AI will always write correct code, so񎟀

When adding new features or making revisions, you can make it easier to identify the cause of issues and improve the quality of the finished product by giving the app a clear development purpose.

Q. What will you be able to do after learning how to create specifications?

You can learn the purpose of creating specifications before developing an app or service, as well as the information you should prepare.

Q. How in-depth is the course content?

This is intended for beginners who have limited basic programming knowledge and want to try vibe coding. In addition to general overviews, we will also provide examples of how to use AI tools such as Chatgpt.

Q. Is there anything I should prepare before taking the course?

Set up your environment for app development and ensure that AI tools such as Chatgpt are available for use.

Any tool that allows you to take notes is fine.
