# 76 Hours of My Code Taught This AI to Build Apps Without Me

**[AngelSix](https://daily.dev/sources/angelsix)** · 24 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

I spent weeks training an AI on every single Avalonia UI video I've made — 76 videos, 16 hours of content — teaching it MY way of writing code, MY preferences, MY standards.

Then I sat back and watched it build a full host application from scratch in 20 minutes.

No copy-paste. No Stack Overflow. No 2-3 hours of boilerplate. Just a prompt, and the AI handled the rest — network interfaces, UI layout, dummy interactions, progress updates, the lot.

This is what "vibe coding" looks like when the AI actually knows what it's doing.

In this video:
→ How I trained the AI on my own codebase and preferences
→ Building a Host Dummy App from scratch via prompts
→ Updating the Batch Process Client to talk to the host
→ Iterating live — fixing UI bugs, progress bars, and dialogues
→ Why I now manage the AI instead of writing every line myself

💡 Tools used: Claude (desktop + terminal), Rider IDE, Avalonia UI
