Expand Up @@ -10,3 +10,11 @@ You can complete the course on free or low-cost tools:
- Module 2: Cursor or GitHub Copilot (pro free trial possible).
- Module 4: a small API deposit (~$5) for OpenAI/Anthropic.
- Other free alternatives are shared on Slack (e.g. Qoder, Kilo Code, Antigravity).

Besides the tools listed above, free models (free API) exist, although sometimes temporarily, which could still be suitable for the duration of a course:

- [OpenRouter free models](https://openrouter.ai/models?pricing=free)
- [Kilo free models](https://kilo.ai/landing/free-models)
- [Nous Portal models](https://portal.nousresearch.com/models) (free models listed on top)

For example, at time of writing, Hy3 and Minimax M3 are free, albeit rate-limited.
