Vibe Coding a Website (For Non-Technical Users)
About this event
You don't need to learn to code. You need to learn to communicate with AI.
What if you could go from "I have a business idea" to a live, professional website in about an hour โ without writing a single line of code yourself? That's not a hypothetical. That's what we're going to do together.
Vibe Coding is a hands-on workshop where you'll use AI tools to build and deploy a real, production-ready website. Not a toy. Not a template. A fully custom site with contact forms, newsletter signup, SEO optimization, mobile responsiveness, accessibility compliance, and security headers โ the works. You'll tell the AI what you want, and a team of 19 specialized AI skills will handle the implementation.
I've been in tech since before the web existed โ from BBSs to open source to cloud to AI โ and I haven't been this excited about a technology shift since the early internet days. We're at the point where the barrier between "I have an idea" and "here's my website" is basically a conversation. And I want to show you how.
What You'll Walk Away With
- A live, professionally built website deployed on Vercel with a custom domain, SSL, and CDN
- Hands-on experience using AI agents to handle brand discovery, design, content, forms, and deployment
- A repeatable workflow you can use for future projects โ for yourself or your clients
- The confidence to build web projects without waiting on (or paying for) a developer

Before You Arrive: What You'll Need
This is a hands-on workshop. To follow along and build your own site, please set up these free accounts before the event:
- GitHub Account (free) โ github.com This is where your website code will live. If you don't have one, sign up โ it takes two minutes.
- Vercel Account with v0 (free) โ v0.app/ref/VQQW5K Vercel is where your site gets deployed. v0 is their AI-powered development tool. Sign up through this link and we both earn $5 in credits. When you subscribe, we both earn $20 in credits.
- An AI Platform โ Pick one (or bring all three):
- Manus (easiest to use) โ manus.im/invitation/NAGZ9RPPM9OYOD
- Claude (my preferred platform for the code) โ claude.ai
- ChatGPT โ chatgpt.com
- Your brand idea โ Know what kind of site you want to build. A business, a portfolio, a side project, a community page โ anything works. Come with a rough idea of who you serve and what you do.
No coding experience required. Seriously. If you can describe what you want in plain English, you have everything you need.
Who Is This For?
- Entrepreneurs and small business owners who need a website but don't want to pay $5,000+ for one
- Marketers and content creators who want to prototype landing pages fast
- Consultants and freelancers who want to offer web services without learning to code
- Curious professionals who want to see what AI can actually do right now โ not in some hypothetical future
- Developers who want to 10x their speed by letting AI handle the boilerplate
The Tech (For the Curious)
Your site will be built with standard HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript โ no proprietary lock-in, no walled gardens. The code is portable, readable, and yours to keep. It deploys on Vercel with automatic CDN, SSL, and global edge delivery. The AI handles everything from brand voice to WCAG accessibility compliance to Core Web Vitals optimization.
