What is the workshop about?
After 3 successful cohorts, 300+ users and over 400+ Questions responded to LIVE with Christoffer, we are back with the most hands-on workshop that let's you put your learning to practice by building an Agentic AI App with MCP.
AI applications are becoming more capable, but they only become useful when they can securely access the right context, tools, and data.
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is the standard for connecting AI models to real systems in a safe, structured, and predictable way.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll
- Learn how to build an MCP server from scratch, connect it to a client, and integrate it into a real web application.
- Implement features such as product search, FAQ handling, and back-office sampling and elicitation using an e-commerce scenario.
- Build an Agentic UI with MCP-UI, giving your AI agent a dynamic, interactive interface.
If you want to understand how modern AI assistants connect to your app, access business context, and trigger real actions, this workshop will give you a complete, practical foundation.
