# Learn to Own the Code You Ship

> Practical guides on understanding AI-generated code, auditing it, learning an inherited codebase, and what an AI coding tutor does inside a real project.

These are the guides we would hand to someone who has just been given a codebase and told it is theirs now. They are written to be useful on their own, whether or not you ever install anything.

## Start here

- [How to understand AI-generated code you did not write](/learn/understand-ai-generated-code/): the five things to check, in order, with a worked example of code that reads perfectly and fails at scale.
- [Audit AI-generated code before you trust it](/learn/ai-code-audit/): what an audit reads, the areas that decide whether software survives, and how a finding becomes a skill.
- [Understand an entire codebase, not just one file](/learn/system-immersion/): why file-by-file explanation leaves you lost, and what a whole-system walkthrough covers.
- [How to learn an existing codebase](/learn/learn-existing-codebase/): a first week that works when you inherit software, including a two-week plan.
- [AI coding tutor that teaches you to own your code](/learn/ai-coding-tutor/): what the tutor does inside a real project, and how a lesson runs from start to finish.

## What connects them

One idea: the code existing is not the same as the code being yours. Every guide here is about closing that distance, with the project you actually have rather than a tutorial repository.

LoWisa is the tool built around that idea. LoWisa is a desktop IDE with a live AI tutor built in, and a phone app that teaches the same way, so you can understand, debug and own real projects, including the ones AI wrote for you.

## More about LoWisa

- [About LoWisa](/about/): why it exists, what it does and who it is for.
- [Roadmap](/roadmap/): what is shipped, what is being built and what is being explored.
- [Changelog](/changelog/): what changed, when, and what it means for you.

## Try it on your own project

The tutor reads your real code and teaches from it. Free to download, free credits to start.
