Hands-On Vibe Coding Workshop: AI-Powered Build & Break Session

​One day. One prototype. Honest feedback.

​You notice problems others ignore. You imagine solutions others can't see. Now you can build those solutions and test if you're onto something bigger.

​This hands-on workshop teaches you to use AI tools (Miro, Claude, Lovable, v0.app, bolt.new) to build working prototypes in hours, not months. Then we test them with real people to see what actually works.

​Why This Matters: AI can already turn conversations into code—but the real question is: what’s worth building? This session is about exploring that boundary together, testing ideas quickly, and seeing how far today’s tools can really take us.

​Your facilitators

• ​Dima Abramov: Product lead @Foundever and creator of Vibe Coding community in Amsterdam obsessed with AI-assisted building. Dima uses Lovable, Replit, v0, and bolt.new to turn ideas into testable prototypes.

• ​Varsha Prasad (IdeaCompass): Innovation facilitator & strategist. Runs hands-on workshops using Design Thinking, Service Design, and Design Sprints to align teams and turn bold ideas into concrete strategies.

​Structure

• ​90 mins: Strategic foundation - validate your idea using design thinking

• ​45 mins: Lunch & networking with fellow builders

• ​90 mins: Vibe coding sprint - build with AI tools + product principles

• ​45 mins: Honest debrief - what worked, what failed, why

​Who it’s for

• ​Product managers ready to build, not just manage

• ​Founders testing ideas before hiring developers

• ​Designers who want to prototype independently

• ​Anyone tired of ideas staying as ideas

​You’ll leave with

• ​A working prototype built in ~5 hours

• ​Clear feedback on what to fix next

• ​Hands-on practice with Claude, Lovable, v0, bolt.new, Miro

​Details

• ​Cost: €22 (venue)

• ​Size: 6-10 people max

• ​Application required - we look for committed participants to explore the future of product building with AI

• ​Tools: You’ll need an active account (free or subscription) on at least one AI building tool of your choice (Claude, Lovable, v0, Replit, bolt.new). We’ll guide you, but you need access to use them.

​Pilot edition: We’re testing how far AI tools can go in turning real ideas into working prototypes. Join us to push the limits.
