Coding for Non-Coders

​Coding websites and apps is suddenly possible for non-technical people.

​AI is incredible for many reasons, but this is one that surprised me. I’ve dabbled in programming my whole life and it never really clicked. With ChatGPT, something changed. I now spend most of my free time building small tools and solving “software-shaped problems” in my personal and professional life.

​This session is for beginners. You’ve used AI mostly through chat, and you have the sense there’s more there.

​We’ll run a structured exercise where you build a simple personal or professional website reflecting your brand or services. No coding experience needed.

​What you’ll need:

• ​Computer to work from;

• ​Free account on V0 for building your first prototype;

• ​Free account on GitHub to save your code;

• ​Free account on Vercel to publish your site;

• ​If you want to go further: Paid account on V0, Claude or ChatGPT.

  • ​Those who want can download their prototype site and run it locally with Claude Code or OpenAI Codex during the session.

​What to expect:

• ​You’ll go from “using AI” to “building with AI” in one session.

• ​We’ll work fast, in short cycles, and focus on getting something live rather than perfect.

​Homework:

• ​Register free accounts on V0, GitHub and Vercel.

• ​Review our guide on Coding for Non-Coders, where you will learn about the concepts we'll be covering.

• ​Optional: join the Coding Club group in the Envisioning WhatsApp Community.

​Participant feedback from previous sessions:

• ​It was a great introduction! I am motivated to continue the exploration.

• ​Phenomenal return on time invested.

• ​You make it safe to be brave in using AI technology as an absolutely not technical creative!
