A hands-on 2–4 session course for non-technical professionals who want to create working apps, tools, and experiences using AI. No coding background needed.
"Vibe coding" is building software by describing what you want in plain English, letting AI handle the technical work. You don't write a single line of code. You act as the product manager: describing the idea, reviewing the result, and directing the AI to improve it.
Tools like Lovable, V0, Bolt, and Claude Artifacts have crossed a threshold where non-technical people can ship real, working things (games, web apps, internal tools, personal sites) in a single session. This course is about experiencing that firsthand, with someone who builds this way every day.
The gap between "I wish this existed" and "here it is" has never been smaller. Professionals who learn to close that gap, even imperfectly, have an enormous advantage.
You no longer need a developer to prototype an idea, validate a concept, or build a simple tool for your team. You can do it yourself, in an afternoon.
Executives who have personally shipped something with AI speak about AI differently, and more convincingly, than those who have only read about it.
Vibe coding is the on-ramp. Students who finish this course have the mental model to go further into real developer workflows, automation, and AI agents, if they choose.
Two courses offered as a progressive track. Take either standalone, or both in sequence. No coding experience required for either.
Build a working app from scratch, deploy it with a real URL, and learn the iteration loop that makes everything faster. Goal: ship something real using only plain English.
Set up a real dev workflow with GitHub, Cursor, and AI coding tools. Learn documentation habits, context management, and how to build basic AI agents. Goal: work like a serious builder.
Sessions are 60–90 minutes. You'll have hands on keyboard the entire time. This is a doing course, not a watching course.
Your first app in 60 minutes
We start by building something real, right in the session. You'll pick an idea (a game, a tool, a personal site) and we'll build it together from a blank screen using Lovable, V0, Bolt, or Claude Artifacts. By the end you'll have something working and a visceral sense of what's possible.
Deploy, polish, and share
A prototype you can only see yourself isn't finished. In Session 2 we deploy what you built in Session 1 to the internet, giving it a real shareable URL, and adding the small polish details that make something feel professional rather than AI-generated.
Optional: for students who want more
Deepen the product thinking habit, explore more ambitious projects, and understand when the intro tools are the right choice versus when it's worth moving to a proper developer workflow. Also covers the limits of vibe coding tools, and how to recognize when you've hit them.
Students who finish the intro course and want more control can continue into the Intermediate track: a 3–4 session deep dive into the real developer workflow used by builders at companies like Apple and Google.
GitHub, VS Code, Cursor: own your code and never lose track of a project again.
Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor: the same tools working developers use, without needing to be one.
Documentation and context management: how to keep AI useful across long projects instead of starting fresh every session.
Build your first automated workflow, the kind that saves 30+ minutes a week on repeating tasks.
White collar professionals who are curious about building with AI but haven't started yet, or who have dabbled and want someone to show them the right way to learn it. No technical background required. If you can write an email, you can take this course.
Offered as small group sessions or one-on-one. Custom formats available for teams.
