An Introduction to Antigravity

Learn to use Antigravity—Google's free AI-powered coding app—for novel writing. Kimberly shows that if AI can follow complex instructions in any language (including English!), it can write books. Authors are coders; story is the original code. The course covers installation, workspace customization, and the Agent Manager—Anti-Gravity's standout feature that lets you watch AI break tasks into steps and even replay its web research. Security and permissions are emphasized throughout. Using a playful pirate romantasy premise, students learn a complete workflow: market research, story structure, outline building, character development, and marketing plans. Features covered include inline comments, style guides, automatic document updates, and voice commands. You'll see how an empty folder and a simple premise become a full outline, character bible, research notes, and marketing plan. If you can use a chat window, you can do this!
