Hugging Face has officially released a free online course on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), bringing a surprise to AI developers worldwide. As a standardized protocol for connecting large language models (LLMs) with external data and tools, MCP is becoming a core technology in AI Agent development.
This course covers everything from the fundamentals of the MCP protocol to practical development and application. Its content is highly practical, allowing developers to learn quickly, get hands-on with applications, and build efficient AI context interaction systems.
The course includes:
Fundamental units: where you learn the theoretical concepts of MCP.
Hands-on practice: you will learn how to use established MCP SDKs to build your applications. These hands-on sections will have pre-configured environments.
Use case assignments: you will apply the concepts you have learned to solve a real-world problem of your choice.
