Codemonkey AIlearn to code, locally
Learn to code with an AI tutor that never leaves your machine.
Codemonkey AI is a fully local desktop app built on .NET 8 + Avalonia. It pairs a real chat-and-sidecar coding workspace with 20 language tracks, 2,478 lessons, and an AI mentor that explains every step — no account, no cloud, your progress stays yours.
A full curriculum, hand-built into the app.
One Avalonia app with two jobs: the MultiAgentOS shell gives the AI tutor tools, model routing, and sidecars, while the curriculum library supplies tracks, lessons, projects, and glossary content.
Real app interface
Curriculum on one side, a working AI coding shell on the other.
Codemonkey AI is not just a lesson list. The current desktop build includes chat, lesson navigation, provider routing, permission controls, terminal/code sidecars, and an action toolbar.
Lessons and tutor actions
Language tracks open into structured lessons with explain, hint, quiz, and solution actions so the AI tutor can help at the exact step where the learner is stuck.
Live AI workspace
The same app gives learners side chat, sandbox, terminal, provider selection, permissions, attachments, files, code tools, and connection status from the prompt bar.
Four modes, one app
Chat, learn, build, and look things up.
Switch modes from the sidebar pill strip — the AI tutor follows you everywhere with context-aware help.
Chats
The full MultiAgentOS chat experience — pick a connection, talk to any LLM, and invoke the same browser, code, terminal, and file sidecars while you learn.
Lessons
20 difficulty-grouped language tracks → collapsible sections → step-by-step lessons, with the AI tutor offering "Explain this step", "Hint", "Quiz me", and "Show solution".
Projects
Multi-file coding challenges with a goal, acceptance criteria, and starter files — built in the code editor and terminal sidecars, with an AI mentor that has full project context.
Glossary
A searchable index of 88 programming terms with related-term navigation, so a new concept is always one click away.
