About this course
For working software engineers. The AI editor once called Windsurf is now Devin Desktop, and its Cascade agent has been replaced by Devin Local. Learn the product as it stands in October 2026: what each plan, quota and model costs you; how to give the agent context with rules, skills and MCP servers; how to drive it through multi-step changes in Plan, Ask and Normal modes; how to review, revert and redirect its work; and how to build, test, review and ship a feature behind permission rules that hold. Finish with a free hands-on lab on a small made-up repository.
