A four-week hands-on coding cohort.

You already understand software development concepts, and you are ready to bring your ideas to life. Now you need the skills to turn those ideas into working software whenever you decide it is time to build. AI-assisted coding (vibe coding) now enables building real, production-ready apps through structured conversations with AI tools. Learning best practices and strong prompting techniques is the new essential skill for modern developers and creators like yourself.

In this four-week workshop, you will start with a prompt and progressively design, build, and refine a real web application using chat-based AI tools. Each session combines short learning sessions with hands-on building. By the end of every week, you will have something working that you can continue improving. By week four, you will have a working web app deployed from your own code repository. If you have some prior software experience and are ready to build, you are a strong fit for this workshop.

Do I need prior coding experience to join?

No formal developer background is required. This workshop is designed for semi-technical participants, including IT professionals, aspiring developers, and people who want guided practice building a practical web app.

Is this workshop tied to one coding product or platform?

No. The workshop teaches transferable skills and workflows that can be applied across AI coding tools, chat interfaces, editor integrations, and future platforms.

What kind of web app can I build during the cohort?

Most participants build a practical web app or internal tool tied to a real workflow they already care about. That could include an operations dashboard, intake form, workflow helper, internal utility, or another lightweight product you want to keep improving after the workshop.

Will we cover Git, GitHub, and Docker?

Yes. Week 2 introduces Git and GitHub for version control and collaboration, plus Docker for creating a consistent development environment. The goal is practical familiarity so you can keep improving your app with a more professional workflow.

How does the capstone project work?

You will shape your capstone as the workshop progresses, using the exercises and weekly feedback to improve it over time. In Week 4, you finalize the project, present what you built, and leave with clear next steps for continuing development after the cohort ends.

Will we use AI planning features to make the app more robust?

Yes. In Week 3, the workshop focuses on using AI planning features to break larger goals into manageable steps, improve the structure of your app, and make the product easier to extend, test, and maintain.
