TLDR
This lesson previews your options for packaging agentic AI systems: demo showcases for portfolios or production handoffs for enterprise teams.
You've built a powerful agentic AI system. You've tested it for safety and reliability. Now comes the crucial question: What's next?
This week explores two distinct paths for your agentic AI system ā each serving different goals and audiences.
The path you choose depends on your context, but the principles remain the same: package your work professionally so others can understand, use, and build upon it.
Two paths forward
Your agentic AI system is ready to leave the development environment. But where it goes next depends on your goals:
Path 1: Demo & Portfolio Path (Hobby/Student Projects)
Build shareable demos that showcase your expertise to collaborators and employers:
- Quick visual interfaces using Gradio and Streamlit
- Easy hosting on Hugging Face Spaces and Streamlit Cloud
- Portfolio-ready showcases that demonstrate real capabilities
- API services for others who want to integrate with your work
Perfect for: Job interviews, portfolio projects, academic presentations, and proof-of-concept demonstrations.
Path 2: Production Handoff Path (Enterprise Implementation)
Prepare your system for professional DevOps teams and real-world deployment:
- Resilience engineering ā Handle failures gracefully when stakes are high
- Comprehensive documentation ā Technical specs, model documentation, and compliance materials
- Professional packaging ā Everything DevOps needs for enterprise deployment
Perfect for: Enterprise implementations, regulated industries, and professional development workflows.
What's in store this week?
This week takes you through both paths ā from demo creation to professional handoff.
Path 1: Demo & Portfolio Focus
- Lessons 1a-1b: FastAPI & Render ā Build professional APIs and deploy them as scalable services
- Lesson 2: Gradio & Hugging Face ā Create intuitive demos and share them instantly
- Lesson 3: Streamlit & Cloud ā Build interactive showcases for stakeholders and employers
Path 2: Production Handoff Focus
- Lesson 4: Building Resilience ā Handle real-world failures: What happens when OpenAI or Tavily goes down?
- Lesson 5: Production Documentation ā Technical docs, model docs, and compliance materials for professional handoffs
Note: FastAPI (Lesson 1) can serve both paths ā demos and production APIs.
By the end of this week, you'll have:
- Demo-ready showcases that impress employers and collaborators
- Production-ready packages that DevOps teams can actually work with
- Professional documentation that meets technical and business requirements
- Resilient systems that handle real-world failures gracefully
Your agentic AI system is no longer just working code.
It's a professionally packaged solution ready for its next chapter, whether that's landing you a job or powering enterprise applications.
