Large language models (LLMs)have become the backbone of modern software, powering everything from code assistants to data pipelines. However, until recently, building with them meant juggling multiple APIs, setting up environments, and writing extensive code just to test a single prompt. Google AI Studio changes that. It's a web-based workspace where you can prototype with the latest Gemini models, write prompts, analyze outputs, and export working code in minutes. Think of it as your personal playground for experimentation and deployment.
