What the book does
Foundry walks the whole DevSecOps loop, Idea to Dev to Sec to Ops, in plain language. You go from an idea in one sentence to a live website with a pipeline, a security scan, a cost check and a way to know it is still up. The AI does the typing; you stay the architect and keep the gates.
Who it is for
- You have an idea and no development background.
- You want to use Claude or Codex well, not just copy what it says.
- You care about doing it safely: secrets, permissions and bills included.
Three principles
- Be the architect, not the bricklayer.
- Let the AI finish the job, but keep the gates.
- Trust what you verified, not what looks green.
