About this audiobook
What can one person create and publish in thirty days with AI agents, a $20 monthly subscription, and no professional software-engineering background?
This book documents how the author built and published a personal asset-management workflow, short-form videos, a Webtoon, a blog, and a content-operations system.
You will discover:
- Practical ways to use AI agents in real projects
- How non-developers can begin with vibe coding
- A workflow connecting creation, quality review, and publication
- How to decide what to automate and what requires human judgment
The book also shares the mistakes and revisions that improved each project. It is a practical guide for independent professionals, creators, and non-technical readers who want to turn ideas into real, publishable work.
