Uh hello guys, welcome to this video. So
0:02
in this video, I'll show you yet another
0:04
AI coding agent for programming and
0:07
developing apps. It's called a
0:09
Zenoder.ai.
0:10
If you go to the browser, simply type
0:12
this address and this web page will come
0:15
right here. It automatically builds out
0:17
your applications with a simple IDE
0:20
similar to cursor which is a famous
0:24
solutions for building your
0:25
applications. So inside their pricing
0:28
model, they do offer the free plan to
0:30
actually try out their features for
0:32
completely free. Just log in with your
0:34
Google account and it offers you 25
0:37
premium LLM calls per day and unlimited
0:41

0:43
So the pro plan starts with $19 per
0:46
month. And now to get started, simply
0:49
click on login and uh simply login with
0:52
your Google account.
0:55
So
0:56
click on Google or you can also use
0:59
GitHub account as well. So once you log
1:02
in right here
1:04
it will grant with this interface.
1:09
It will have this complete IDE where it
1:12
will generate your application
1:14
instantly.
1:18
So you can give it a name right here.
1:21
Let me say free media tools.
1:24
Click on accept and continue. So after
1:27
you do this. So now you just need to
1:30
download this zen coder right inside
1:33
your IDEs. So simply you can if you're
1:38
using VS code
1:41
just go to the extensions tab. It's a VS
1:44
code
1:45
extension. So just type zen coder.
1:52
So, it's got almost 56,000 installs. So,
1:54
click on the install button.
2:02
So, once you install this, you will see
2:04
it will appear right here in the sidebar
2:06
section and you clicked on sign in. It
2:10
will open the window.
2:17
So, now you are successfully logged in.
2:19
So,
2:24
so now you get basically get this chat
2:26
window where you actually ask an
2:28
question to generate codes for you
2:31
directly inside VS code. So
2:36
right here let me open this Python file
2:39
here.
2:42
I can simply say generate a
2:45
Python script to
2:58
So we simply write the prompt here and
3:00
based upon the prompt it will work on
3:02
your request.
3:09
So it will automatically check whatever
3:11
is the content inside app. py and then
3:14
it will try to modify it.
3:19
It will use flask
3:21
framework.
3:30
So automatically it will replace the
3:33
content of the existing app. py file. So
3:36
as you can see it's similar to cursor
3:39
and uh the thing is that you can
3:42
automatically try this for completely
3:44
free. So now I need to create the HTML
3:47
template. Let me create the templates
3:49
directory and the HTML file. So it will
3:51
automatically create the templates here
3:54
for you.
4:04
So this is the code that we generated.
4:17
So it will basically create the
4:19
templates directory here. You can see
4:21
automatically it created the templates
4:22
directory and created this index html
4:25
file.
4:28
So it automatically creates a file. You
4:30
just need to write the prompt and then
4:32
automatically it will have the run
4:34
button. So click on run
4:39
and it will automatically install the
4:41
dependencies.
4:50
So you just need to restart the terminal
4:52
here.
4:57
I think I just need to relaunch the
5:00
terminal.
5:21
So just open a folder right here.
5:27
What was the folder name? Let me check.
5:30
It's GitHub copilot project sam 2.
5:51
First of all, close this.
5:55
I think I just need to restart this.
6:06
So just go to the tab here Zen coder
6:13
automatically it will
6:16
uh have all the history which you load
6:19
chat sessions.
6:21
If you by mistake close the VS code
6:24
it will all have the chatting here.
6:34
So click on the chat. So chat info is
6:37
loading. So just wait
6:42
and click on run once and it will
6:45
directly open the terminal and
7:02
so you can see automatically suggesting
7:04
some kind of as you can see the term PNP
7:06
is not recognized. ized. So it is
7:09
telling us that.
7:14
So let me just open command line here.
7:17
Python.
7:19
So Python is accessible right here. But
7:24
it's not accessible in
7:27
the VS code.
7:30
So PN
7:33
it is also accessible right here. But
7:35
it's not accessible, right?
7:39
So you can manually start this by just
7:42
writing python app. py
7:45
or you can just open a new terminal
7:47
window.
7:50
Open this inside.
8:05
So just need to install.
8:22
So in my specific system this command is
8:25
not working but in your system it will
8:26
definitely work. This is just my issue.
8:29
After you do this you just click on this
8:33
python app. py using the zen coder. So
8:36
this will automatically start your
8:38
application.
8:40
So as you can see now I can simply open
8:42
this application.
8:47
So it basically constructed a simple
8:49
image to PDF application right here. So
8:51
here you simply select uh
8:55
the images and then it converts those
8:57
images to PDF.
9:08
So if you get any sort of error in this
9:10
as you can see
9:21
you can basically ask follow-up
9:23
questions as well.
9:36
So if you get any sort of error.
9:44
So basically it will detect which kind
9:46
of error is there.
9:56
So definitely install this extension
9:59
guys which is zen coder. It's similar to
10:02
cursor in VS code. Just go to extensions
10:06
tab and it can generate any sort of
10:08
application for you.
10:11
