Butterbase Build Night @ UW
Come build something real.
Join the Butterbase team at UW for a high energy night of building and launching. This isn't a theoretical lecture—it’s a hands-on workshop where you’ll ship a functional software project before the room clears.
No backend experience? Perfect. Whether you are in CS, Design, or just vibe-coding-curious—if you can describe an idea, you can ship one here.
