faster.dev is a hands-on course that shows you how to use AI in real development work. You learn how to speed up tasks while keeping clean design, clear code, and long-term stability. The goal is to help you ship features fast without turning your codebase into a mess.

What You Learn

You focus on simple, repeatable steps instead of one-off demos. You build a workflow you can trust. You set rules, pick tools, and use AI to support each part of your project.

Course Content

Video Lessons

You start with core ideas and move toward advanced ways to work with AI assistants. Each lesson shows you how to apply the idea in your own code.

Project Logs

You look at real products with real users. You see how choices made during development shape the final system.

Ready Tools

  • slash commands for common tasks
  • init scripts for new projects
  • skills and rules you can add to your workflow

Main Topics

  • setting up AI assistants from scratch
  • creating guardrails for stable and safe code output
  • auditing a codebase and spotting design issues
  • building command chains and simple automation
  • using context and clear prompts
  • connecting AI tools to databases, APIs, and services

Why This Helps

faster.dev shifts you from random AI use to a steady engineering practice. You speed up your work, keep quality steady, and stay in control of your codebase as it grows.

About the Author: Aaron Francis

Aaron Francis thumbnail

Aaron Francis is a Texas-based developer and educator who runs Try Hard Studios and is best known in the PHP / Laravel community for his deep production-database content. His videos and courses focus on the parts of working software that don't get attention from the framework documentation: SQL performance, database internals, and the realities of running databases at scale.

His CourseFlix listing reflects that focus — three database courses (High Performance SQLite, Mastering Postgres, MySQL for Developers) plus two on screencasting craft (Screencasting.com and Screenflow for Screencasters) covering the workflow he uses to produce the database material itself. The database courses are unusually rigorous for the YouTube-tutorial market: each one runs many hours and treats the database as a first-class object of study, not a black box behind an ORM.
