Requirements
Build Apps inside ChatGPT — not outside it.
This course teaches you how to become a ChatGPT App capability provider, using the official OpenAI App SDK and JavaScript (Node.js) to build powerful, interactive applications that run directly within ChatGPT.
If you’ve ever wanted to move beyond calling the OpenAI API from the outside — and instead have ChatGPT call your app — this is the perfect place to start.
Why This Course?
The OpenAI App ecosystem is expanding rapidly, and developers who understand how to build native ChatGPT Apps are gaining a major advantage.
But official documentation can be overwhelming, fragmented, or difficult for beginners to follow.
This course gives you a clear, structured, beginner-friendly path to understanding:
- How ChatGPT Apps work
- How the OpenAI App SDK is structured
- How MCP (Model Context Protocol) enables ChatGPT and App communication
- How to build real, usable apps step-by-step
Everything is taught through practical examples and real projects — no fluff, no unnecessary theory.
