What you'll learn

Too many developers hand a bug to an AI, accept whatever it returns, and hope for the best. In this course, The AI-First Debugger: Modern JavaScript Troubleshooting, you'll gain the ability to debug JavaScript with AI as a disciplined partner. First, you'll explore the shift to agentic debugging and your new role as reviewer and architect. Next, you'll discover how to engineer prompts that scope context, separate logs from code, and make the AI explain itself before it changes any code. Then, you'll learn to use runtime AI in Chrome DevTools, from Console Insights to the Chrome DevTools MCP server. Finally, you'll learn the guardrails that keep you in control, including having the AI write a failing test before it fixes anything. When you're finished, you'll have the skills and knowledge of AI-first JavaScript debugging needed to troubleshoot faster without giving up control of your code.
