Devin Training & Hands-On Labs

The one-stop content hub for Devin enablement: reading courses, hands-on lab modules, workshop sequences, and facilitator-led demos — plus the prompts and repository references that make them runnable.

Content is split by how you consume it: courses/ is reading-first enablement you work through in sequence for your role; workshops/ and labs/ are hands-on, choose-your-own-adventure material you pick from.

Quick Start

  1. Building intuition first? Start with courses/foundations/ — reading-first, no coding
  2. Ready for hands-on? Check workshops/ for your session's lab guide, or ask your facilitator for the direct link
  3. Pick a lab — each lab has a prompt you copy-paste into a new Devin session
  4. Kick off and move on — Devin works autonomously. Start the next lab while it runs
  5. Review the PR — when Devin finishes, review its pull request and leave comments to iterate

Devin works autonomously on its own machine. Once you paste a prompt and kick off a session, Devin runs independently — you don't need to watch it. Move on to the next lab, explore Ask Devin, or grab coffee while it works. You'll get notified when it opens a PR.

Tips for Getting the Most from Your Workshop

  • Start sessions early, review later. Each lab has a "Paste into Devin" step and a separate "Review & Give Feedback" step. Kick off the session first, then use the wait time for Ask Devin research — Devin keeps working in the background.
  • Run parallel sessions. Kick off the next lab while reviewing the previous one. This mirrors real enterprise usage where Devin handles work across many services simultaneously.
  • Use Ask Devin to refine requirements. The better-defined a task is, the better Devin's output. Ask Devin helps you think through the problem before creating a session.
  • Build up Devin's knowledge as you go. When Devin suggests a Knowledge item during a session, accept it — this builds a shared context layer that makes Devin more effective over time.
  • Leave PR comments to steer Devin. After Devin opens a PR, leave comments directly on the diff and Devin will wake up and address them — this is the core workflow for iterating with Devin.

Running Apps Locally

Some labs require a running application. See reference/runtime-resources.md for local run instructions. Your facilitator will let you know if hosted instances are available.

Repository Catalog

Looking for a specific repo? The catalog lists all repositories in the workshop org with descriptions, tech stacks, and links to the labs that use them.

Devin Features Checklist

Track your progress on the Devin Features Appendix — try to discover as many Devin capabilities as you can during the session.
