​A three-hour hands-on workshop where you'll build and ship your first live website with AI. No prior coding experience required.
About this Event

This is for the people who've always wanted to just try it. Product managers, designers, marketers, founders, operators, or anyone who's had an idea for a small tool, landing page, or playful experiment and didn't know where to start. By the end of the session, you'll have a live website online and a workflow you can use over and over again on your own.

​We'll use Claude Code, Codex and VS Code to vibe code a simple site, push it to GitHub, and deploy it live with Vercel.

What you'll do

  • ​Set up your coding environment (VS Code + Claude Code or Codex)
  • ​Run your first local project
  • ​Build and tweak a simple website
  • ​Push your code to GitHub
  • ​Deploy your site live with Vercel
  • ​Connect your own domain

What you'll walk away with

  • ​Your own live website, online by the end of the session
  • ​A clear understanding of the full workflow, from running things locally to pushing into production
  • ​A simple mental model for building things on your own
  • ​A printed step-by-step guide with the key commands to build future projects on your own

Format

  • ​Small group, max 12 people
  • ​Hands-on, bring your laptop (Mac highly preferred!)
  • ​Snacks and non-alcoholic drinks provided

About the organizer

​Play By Ear runs hands-on AI workshops for non-technical people who want to build things themselves. Past sessions include private workshops for corporate teams and public events at conferences and hackathons.


​"Before this workshop, coding felt like something other people did. By the end, I had built and shipped my own live site, and the whole process felt way less intimidating."

​Zara Nemati, Head of Science at Specie Bio
