Phase 8 of 9
Deployment & UI
Days 71-75 (5 days)
From Script to Product
Your AI works in the terminal. Now it's time to share it with the world. This phase teaches you Streamlit for rapid prototyping, FastAPI for production backends, Docker for deployment, and cloud hosting.
By the end, your projects will have real URLs that anyone can access.
What Problems Will You Solve?
UI
Stakeholders ask "When can I actually USE this?"
Scaling
Streamlit doesn't scale - need proper backend
Deployment
"It works on my machine" isn't good enough
Polish
Working app vs polished app - big difference
