​Not a coding class. No technical background needed.

​Mind Made is a three-hour evening in Hong Kong where you get to build an app or a website — starting with the thinking, not the tool. Most events and hackathons skip that part. The AI runs off. It gets overwhelming. You're no longer building your idea — you're chasing the AI's version of it. This round, you take back control. We build the right thing, not just things right.

​This is for you if you:

• ​Have an idea stuck in your Notes app — and keep telling yourself "maybe someday"

• ​Want to finally build something you can show, not just describe

• ​Have tried an AI tool before and ended up more confused than when you started

• ​Are tired of the AI running off in directions you never asked for

​What you'll leave with

• ​A working version of your idea — built by you, live, and ready to show your team, your users, or just future-you

• ​Your one-page strategy — the brief that kept your build on track, and your north star for whatever you make next

• ​A repeatable way of working with AI — so your thinking leads the tool, on this project and every one after

​How the evening works

• ​First, think ruthlessly — and find your north star. What are you building, for whom, and why? Shape it into a one-page strategy before you touch the tool.

• ​Then, build in control. Turn that strategy into your first prompt and go from blank screen to working version in Lovable — with me right there when it gets out of hand.

• ​Finally, share proudly. Demo what you made, then unlock the framework you'll carry into every build after this one.

📍 Causeway Bay/Wan Chai — specific location TBC
🎟️ HKD $318 (Lovable access included)

​What to bring

• ​Your laptop — fully charged

• ​A rough idea of something you'd like to build — a productivity tool, a landing page, a personal dashboard. It doesn't need to be fully formed; we'll spend the first part sharpening it together. Just bring something you care about

​For our HK builders 🇭🇰: Lovable works entirely in English, so you'll want to be comfortable reading and typing in it. The session will be facilitated in English.

​Who's running this

​I'm Sharon. I help people who can't code build real things with AI — and more to the point, build the right things.

​Over the last year I've taught 120+ non-technical people to do exactly that across SheBuilds and Global Service Jam HK, built tools like Countable and Island Time. Mind Made is everything I've learned, distilled into one evening — all aimed at the part that actually matters: the thinking before the building. sharonng.work

​You've described this idea enough times. Come build it. 🛠️
