wtf is agentic-coding-basic?

This repository is a free educational book called Agentic Coding Basic for Junior Developers, written in Burmese by Soe Thura. It teaches beginners how to work with AI coding agents, specifically Claude Code, by walking through the full process of building a small ecommerce website from scratch. The example project, called Myar Yi Store, imagines a local shopkeeper who wants her convenience store online. Readers follow a customer journey: browsing a product list, adding items to a cart, filling in a checkout form with name, phone number, and address, seeing an order summary, and then sending that summary as a screenshot over Viber, a messaging app popular in Myanmar. The site itself is built with React, Vite, and Tailwind CSS, and needs no backend server, since orders are handled through a chat message rather than a database. The book has nine chapters. It starts by explaining what agentic coding means and how it differs from autocomplete, then introduces Claude Code and how to install and start talking to it. From there it covers writing instructions for an AI agent using a CLAUDE.md file and Plan Mode, building the actual store feature by feature, finding and fixing bugs, writing regression tests, creating reusable skills for the agent to reuse, and managing context window size and token usage. It ends with closing advice and a quick reference list for junior developers. The author is explicit that this book will not make a reader fully skilled in agentic coding. It is meant only as a light starting point for people who are completely new to the idea. Readers are encouraged to type out the commands and prompts themselves rather than just reading along, since the author compares learning this skill to learning to ride a bicycle. To use the book itself, a computer running macOS, Windows, or Linux is needed, along with Claude Code, which requires a Pro, Max, Team, Enterprise, or Console account, and basic familiarity with Git. The repository also includes a build script that can generate EPUB and PDF versions of the book for e-readers, with Myanmar language fonts embedded so the text displays correctly even on devices without that font installed.
