Builders Camp IRL Porto: Claude Code for Non-Tech Builders
Builders Camp IRL comes to Porto
If you are non-technical, ambitious, and tired of thinking building products is only for engineers, this evening is for you.
On November 12th, three non-engineers will show you how they use Claude Code to do what used to need a technical team: launch startups, build products, fix operational problems and ship without waiting for engineering.
This is not a high-level AI talk, and it is not theory. It is a show-and-tell for people who want to build. Each speaker opens their laptop and shows what they actually do.
Event details
When: Thursday, November 12th, 17:00 to 20:00

Who is this for?
Product people, operators, marketers and designers who want to build their own things
Aspiring founders without a technical background
Anyone who has asked “Can I actually use Claude Code if I’m not an engineer?”
What you’ll see
Three 30-minute show-and-tells. Each speaker will show you:
How they set up their workflow
The tools, prompts and setups they use
What slowed them down at the start
What they wish they had known earlier
How they ship without waiting for a developer
After that, a 30-minute panel with audience Q&A, and time to meet the other builders in the room.
