JV — Founder of code:zero

Hey, it's JV 👋

Founder & Lead Instructor at code:zero

I spent years building products the slow way — writing every line by hand, debugging alone at 3 AM, shipping features that took weeks instead of hours.

Then I discovered AI-assisted development. Not the gimmicky "ask ChatGPT to write code" stuff. Real engineering workflows — agents that write tests, deploy infrastructure, and review code alongside you. My shipping speed went from weeks to days.

I built code:zero because nobody was teaching this. Bootcamps still teach like it's 2019. They ignore the single biggest shift in software engineering since open source. I teach you to build with AI as your co-pilot — the way top engineers actually work now.
