About Talbot Tech

Software development and teaching

My dad spent a lifetime learning how to understand and repair electronics. I spent mine learning how to build software. Talbot Tech exists to preserve that kind of practical knowledge and pass it on.

— Sean Talbot, founder

Talbot Tech publishes courses based on years of building, repairing, and maintaining technology. The first courses draw on Sean Talbot's experience in software development.

Learning through projects

Courses cover the decisions involved in making software: choosing what to build, planning it, fixing problems, and getting it ready for people to use. You can inspect the projects and see how those decisions affect the result.

How the courses are taught

  • Project demonstrations. Follow actual projects, including the attempts that need fixing.
  • Experienced instructors. Learn from people with years of experience in the subject, starting with Sean.
  • Clear expectations. Each course explains its prerequisites, delivery dates, and early-access status. AI courses also explain the tools' limits.
  • Something to build. Each course is organized around completing a useful project.

Plans for the catalog

The longer-term plan is an independent catalog of technical courses, with other experienced instructors teaching software and other subjects.

The first course

AI-Driven Software Development launches as a live founding cohort: bring a real idea and build a working first version with AI in two weeks. The recordings, questions, and mistakes of that cohort become Talbot Tech's first permanent course.
