Last week, we had an interactive, hands-on virtual session on Vibe Coding with Gemini in Google AI Studio and it was incredible seeing everyone go from prompts to working games.

This week, we’re back with another powerful session happening live this Saturday by 12 PM.

This week's codelab will focus on Getting Started with Google Antigravity - an agent-first platform designed to go beyond traditional coding assistants.

Unlike tools that just autocomplete code, Antigravity gives you a Mission Control where AI agents can plan, code, browse, and execute tasks to help you build faster and smarter.
