Build After Dark 4/29
Build After Dark series
📍Location: Automattic's office!
Ever had an idea you couldn't build because you "aren't technical"?
Build After Dark is a 4-week evening series for women in non-technical roles who are ready to build something and finally have the support system to do it. You'll learn to build and ship a real AI project, using tools like Claude Code or Codex, with expert support the whole way through.
No CS degree or prior experience required. Just you, your idea, and a room full of people rooting for you every step of the way.
This is a 4-week course. To get the most out of Build After Dark, we recommend registering for all sessions. Find the full series here: https://luma.com/buildafterdark.

Week 3: Test, refine, and launch your idea
Learnings: How to pressure test and launch your product using AI tools like Claude Code. You’ll run automated tests, quickly identify and fix issues, and get your product live. By the end, you’ll have something real, working, and out in the world.
What to expect each week
Each week builds on the last:
Week 1, April 15: Setup and fundamentals
Week 2, April 22: Step by step workflow creation
Week 3, April 29: Test, refine, and launch your idea
Week 4, May 6: Celebrate and showcase
This is a 4-week series with dedicated evening meetups 1x/week. Each week, we'll hop between some of the coolest companies and office locations in the city. Light food, beverages, and community time are part of every session.
Why we built this
Women are 20–25% less likely than men to use generative AI tools, yet nearly 28% of women's jobs face AI-driven disruption. The people most affected by this shift deserve to be the ones building through it.
We created Build After Dark to change that—one project at a time.
Come in curious. Leave with something you've built from scratch.
