Build with AI: Create Apps for ChatGPT Using the Apps SDK

This repository contains the Node.js code examples from the LinkedIn Learning course Build with AI: Create Apps for ChatGPT Using the Apps SDK. The full course can be found on LinkedIn Learning.

In this course, you’ll build a real Event Planner app that connects ChatGPT to the Eventbrite API using the ChatGPT Apps SDK and the Model Context Protocol (MCP). You’ll design a custom web component that renders inside ChatGPT, implement an MCP server to expose tools, and test the full experience end to end.

• Design and build a custom web component that renders inside ChatGPT.
• Use the ChatGPT Apps SDK and Model Context Protocol (MCP) to expose tools and resources.
• Create an MCP server in Node.js that securely connects to the Eventbrite API.
• Retrieve and display live event data inside ChatGPT.
• Test and debug MCP tools using the MCP Inspector.
• Expose your MCP server for use with ChatGPT connectors.
