AI-DRIVENDEVELOPMENT DAY
Spend one evening learning directly from the engineers building and using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) in the real world. From low-level protocol mechanics to practical workflows and full-stack agentic integrations.

WHY THIS DAYEXISTS
Unlike traditional AI tools that only suggest code, MCP lets agents interact with live systems, databases, and workflows through a standard interface.
For developers, that means less one-off glue work, more scalable automation, and faster iteration.
But speed alone isn\'t enough... Without testing, verification, security, and strong team practices, those gains can turn into chaos.
This day exists to show developers how to harness MCP effectively, keeping productivity high while staying safe and reliable.
From the company that has trained over 2,000,000 developers including pros at

Justin Schroeder
Creator of FormKit, AutoAnimate, Tempo, ArrowJS
Justin is a Partner at Braid LLC and a full-stack engineer. He's the open-source magician behind FormKit, AutoAnimate, and ArrowJS — tools shaping how thousands of developers build for the web. Known for mixing sharp engineering with playful creativity, he now uses AI to supercharge his projects and push the boundaries of what one developer can achieve.
MCP From Scratch
WHAT IT'S ABOUT:
This session is a guided walk-through of the Model Context Protocol at the protocol level. We'll look directly at the message shapes, transport expectations, capability negotiation, and how tools and prompts are surfaced to a client. From there, we'll implement a minimal MCP server from the ground up, run it, inspect the message exchange, and connect it to a client to confirm it behaves as expected. The goal is to leave with a concrete understanding of how MCP actually works under the hood — enough to reason about debugging, custom extensions, and designing your own servers with precision rather than guesswork.
YOU'LL LEARN:
To understand the core structure of the Model Context Protocol (MCP), including message formats, transport mechanisms, and capability negotiation
How to build and run a minimal MCP server from scratch, inspect real message exchanges, and connect it to a client for verification
How to debug, extend, and design custom MCP servers confidently, understanding what happens under the hood

Daniel Kelly
Lead AIDD Instructor at BitterBrains
Daniel has done it all. He has over a decade of experience as a developer, has built real projects, created open-source tools, and now shares his knowledge as the lead instructor at BitterBrains. He spends his days running live workshops and making courses that developers actually enjoy, and he's bringing that same energy to teaching AI in real projects.
Practical MCP for Nuxt Developers
WHAT IT'S ABOUT:
MCP's give AI agents access to outside information and tools. When building projects with Nuxt you can strategically incorporate MCPs into your development workflow. In this talk, I'll show you how to move faster using the Nuxt UI MCP to create user interfaces with ease. We'll incorporate image generation MCPs to easily include completely unique yet relevant imagery to pages. Even give agents the ability to check there work with browser automation MCPs. Finally, I'll show you how to auto generate an MCP server of your own based off of your Nuxt api endpoints.
YOU'LL LEARN:
How to integrate MCPs into Nuxt projects to extend AI agents with real-world data and tool access
How to leverage Nuxt UI and image-generation MCPs to create rich, dynamic interfaces and visuals rapidly
How to automate workflows and generate your own MCP server directly from Nuxt API endpoints for faster, smarter development

Garrison Snelling
Founder of ComputeSDK
Garrison builds tools devs actually love to use. As founder of ComputeSDK, he's rethinking how compute plugs into apps and AI agents, pushing the edge of what developer platforms can do. Before that, at StackBlitz and LocalStack, he led teams, solved tough cloud challenges, and shared insights that continue to inspire developers and make their work feel lighter, smarter, and more fun.
From the Edge and Back: Turn Any REST API into an MCP Server
WHAT IT'S ABOUT:
Got a REST API? Let's make it talk to AI agents—from the edge. I'll show you how to wrap any REST API with the Model Context Protocol and deploy it to Cloudflare Workers for lightning-fast, globally distributed access. We'll take a live REST API, build an MCP server around it, and push it to the edge—all in real-time. You'll learn the key patterns for translating REST conventions into MCP tools and resources, best practices for edge deployment with Cloudflare, and how to handle common challenges like authentication, forwarding, and response streaming. This is a practical, code-heavy session designed to get you building MCP servers from your existing APIs immediately.
YOU'LL LEARN:
How to wrap any REST API with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to make it accessible to AI agents
How to deploy MCP servers to Cloudflare Workers, achieving fast, globally distributed access at the edge
Key implementation patterns and best practices for translating REST endpoints into MCP tools, handling authentication, and managing response streaming
