About Event

​Part of Taiwan Digital Fest (TDF), Taiwan’s largest and most iconic digital nomad festival, bringing together global nomads, creators, entrepreneurs, and local communities across Taiwan. Learn more at fest.dna.org.tw.

​A full day of hands-on AI workshops — build things, ship things, leave with something real.


​Host: Kenji Pa

​

  • ​Professional Background: Ex-Engineering Lead @ Oursky TW; Technical Director @ Chimapp

  • ​Community: Code for Taiwan, PyCon TW

​About the Workshop:

​You know how to use AI. But every time you build a website, it looks like… those 1000 dark-purple sites generated by AI.

​In this hands-on workshop, you'll use Pencil — an AI-driven design canvas to go from a blank file to a fully designed, deployed website. No Figma. No design background. Just prompts, iteration, and shipping.

​What you'll walk away with:

  • ​A live website, deployed and shareable before you leave the room

  • ​Practical prompt techniques for getting good design output from AI

  • ​Confidence to refine layouts, typography, and spacing — even if you've never "done design"

​What we'll cover:

  • ​Generating a full page design from a text prompt in Pencil

  • ​Refining and editing: turning AI output into something that actually looks yours

  • ​Deploying to GitHub Pages so the world can see it — we'll create a GitHub account together if you don't have one

​Who this is for:

  • ​Anyone who is interested in AI-assisted software development

  • ​Designers curious about AI-assisted design workflows

  • ​Developers who know how to ship features but struggle with UI

  • ​Anyone who's tired of their purple-color side projects


​IMPORTANT - setup is required

  • ​Laptop with macOS / Linux installed

    • ​Windows could work too but workshop helpers can only provide limited support

  • ​Active Claude Code / Codex subscription (required)

  • ​Optional: Your own site content — text, images, copy. A standard set of default content would be provided if you don't have one... But working on your own stuff is always more fun — bring it if you have it!
