make things with AI agents

Full
send.

A reference site for making things with AI coding agents. Started by a kid. Written so kids, friends, and parents can all read it.

01

Kids ~10

You do not need to already be a programmer. You need something you want to exist, and you need to keep testing it until it does.

02

Show a friend

Make something tiny, test it yourself, put it on a link. Showing another person is how you know it works.

03

Parents

This is not homework and not a black box. Your kid is directing an agent. You are allowed to ask what it did.

What this is

  • A reference — words, common mistakes, and how-to notes.
  • A place to learn building with AI agents (we use Cursor; other agents are covered in the notes).
  • Kid-first, parent-readable, friend-welcome.

What this is not

  • A school.
  • A course with modules, gold stars, or homework.
  • A place that talks down to kids or past parents.

How the work goes

You say what you want. An AI agent tries to build it. You click around, you test it, you say what is wrong. Then you ask again.

Around here the default agent is Cursor. You can also use Claude Code or Codex — there is a note on how to choose. Marlow and Angus started this so the rest of the crew, and parents with ordinary questions, have one place to look.
