We just posted a complete guide to Manus AI over on the freeCodeCamp.org YouTube channel. Created by Beau Carnes (thats me!), this course will teach you how you can use agentic AI to automate real-world projects.
Most AI tools you use day-to-day are basic chatbots: you type a prompt, and they type a reply back. Manus works differently because it is an AI agent. Instead of just answering questions, it runs tasks inside an isolated cloud computer (a sandbox). It can browse the live web, write and execute code, interact with real websites, and handle complex multi-step processes without you having to guide it through every single choice.
The tutorial takes you from setting up a free account to building custom automations and working programmatically. You will learn how to run deep web research, access private sites securely, build sites and prototypes, use the developer API, and more.
Check out the full course on the freeCodeCamp.org YouTube channel to start building your own automations.
