Learning professional Frontend with Science and Agentic AI
summary
Scraps a 2,000‑lesson video course and rebuilds a guided learning product called Frontend Leap using Vue, an agent named Mentat, and GPT-5.4 (thinking medium). Mentat generates self-contained code checkpoints, forces explanations, gives immediate feedback, and applies cognitive principles like spaced difficulty and deliberate practice. Early metrics: 216 registered, 17 active, three power users with 3–5 hour sessions; three refund requests after the relaunch. Prototype works as a focused proof‑of‑concept but remains a work in progress.
