Build Apps Without Code Using Base44
You don’t need to be a programmer to bring your idea to life. In this hands-on workshop, you will learn how to use Base44, a no-code web app builder, to turn ideas into working prototypes in under an hour.
We’ll start with the fundamentals of vibe coding — prompting the system with plain language instead of lines of code. Then, you’ll dive directly into building: from drafting your first app screen to customizing features and testing live. Along the way, we’ll highlight how founders are already using Base44 to validate ideas, pitch investors, and test markets faster than ever.
What You’ll Do in 60 Minutes:
Learn the basics of vibe coding and why it matters for entrepreneurs.
Build a simple, functional app using Base44’s no-code platform.
Explore use cases for pitching, prototyping, and rapid validation.
Walk away with your own working app and a framework to expand it.
Who It’s For:
This session is designed for Columbia alumni interested in entrepreneurship, product design, or testing startup ideas quickly — no technical background required.
Outcome:
By the end of the workshop, you’ll understand how no-code prototyping can accelerate your entrepreneurial journey and leave with a working demo app you created yourself.
