Vibecoding for Academics and researchers: basics of building software products
Vibe-coding is taking over the world and is offering specific opportunities to people from all walks of life but this workshop is directed to the academic and research communities.
Do you have an algorithm somewhere in a drawer that you would like to get in the hands of users but you don't know how?
Would you like to generate more data for your experiment, but don't have an attractive landing space?
Do you just want to turn a messy spreadsheet into a functional tool that is easier to remember how to use?
Then this event will help you take the first steps towards executing on these goals.
We invite you to participate in a practical workshop where we open the vibe-coding tools for the first time with you, explain all the moving parts and their purpose, and get you to generate something functional on your own.
We're also bringing guests from the software product side of the world, to help better bridge the scientific and commercial.
But mostly you will be building, with some guidance from us but also the AI tools themselves. And those who feel brave enough by the end of the event are invited to show everyone what they've built (we'll also show our in-progress projects to illustrate what can be done).
Bring a laptop (preferably already charged, we don't know if everyone will have an outlet), a charger, and good vibes :).
This side-event takes place onsite at the sTARTUp Day venue and requires a ticket to take part. Capacity is limited to 25 people with priority given to pre-registered participants.
