Generative AI Application Development with Python

Module 02

API Keys, Environment Variables, Costs, and Safe Local Setup

By the end of this module you can set up keys and environment variables safely, estimate what a feature will cost per call, and avoid the mistake that puts a secret in version control.

Units

  1. Unit 02.00: Keys in the environment, never in the file
  2. Unit 02.01: The key that reached your git history
  3. Unit 02.02: Costing a feature before you build it
  4. Unit 02.03: A spend ceiling your code enforces
  5. Unit 02.04: A local setup someone else can reproduce
