Vibe Coding, Done Properly
Turn a Business Problem or Idea into a Deployed Application in 3 Hours

Have an idea for an application but don't know how to code?

Frustrated by a manual process, spreadsheet, or business problem that you wish had a simple software solution?

Curious about AI-assisted software development but unsure where to start?

This hands-on workshop is designed for non-developers who want to use modern AI tools to build real applications without becoming software engineers.

In just three hours, you'll learn how to work with AI as your development partner, taking an idea from concept through design, development, version control, and deployment. By the end of the session, you'll have a working application running in the cloud and a practical understanding of how AI is changing software creation.

Unlike many "vibe coding" demonstrations that focus on generating code as quickly as possible, this workshop takes a structured approach. You'll learn lightweight design, documentation, version control, and deployment practices that help ensure what you build can be maintained and improved over time.

No programming experience is required.

What You'll Learn

We'll use a modern AI-powered development workflow built around:

• Claude Code for AI-assisted application development
• GitHub for version control and project management
• Vercel for cloud deployment

You'll learn:

• What vibe coding and agentic coding are, and where they fit
• How AI can help transform ideas into working software
• When AI-generated applications are appropriate—and when they aren't
• How to define and structure a problem before building
• How to use Claude Code effectively as a development partner
• How to document requirements and design decisions
• How to manage changes using GitHub
• How to deploy an application to the cloud using Vercel
• Common pitfalls and practical lessons learned from real-world projects

Workshop Format
Hour 1: Foundations and Setup

We'll cover:

• What vibe coding is
• The opportunities and limitations of AI-assisted development
• How to think about software design as a non-developer
• Setting up Claude Code, GitHub, and Vercel
• Choosing a project idea

Hours 2–3: Build and Deploy

Participants will:

• Define a business problem or idea
• Create a lightweight design
• Build an application with Claude Code
• Manage the project in GitHub
• Deploy the application to Vercel
• Share and test results

By the end of the workshop, you'll have a deployed application and a repeatable process you can use again.

Who Should Attend?

This workshop is ideal for:

• Business professionals
• Project managers
• Business analysts
• Consultants
• Operations leaders
• Entrepreneurs
• Product owners
• Subject matter experts
• Anyone with an idea they would like to turn into a working application

No software development experience is required.

What You Need

Participants should bring:

• A laptop
• A GitHub account
• A Vercel account
• Access to Claude Code (details will be provided before the session)

Basic computer literacy is all that's required.

What You'll Leave With

You won't leave with a coding certificate.

You'll leave with:

• A working deployed application
• A practical AI-assisted development workflow
