Build it Right: Kiro for Students (Option 2)

​Get ready to build with Kiro, an AI-powered development environment - available for free - to select university students for one year!

​During this 60 minute remote workshop, you'll go from idea to working app using Kiro's spec-driven development approach, where you stay in control while AI does the heavy lifting. You'll learn:

• ​Fundamentals of spec-driven development

• ​Human-in-the-loop AI collaboration

• ​Structured implementation

• ​Real-time debugging

• ​How to iterate on an existing project

​No coding experience, API keys, or credit cards required - just bring your laptop and curiosity!

​Unlike traditional "vibe coding" tools that leave you with code you don't understand, Kiro walks you through three clear phases - requirements, design, and implementation - ensuring you can explain every line of code you create. Whether you're working on class projects, preparing for hackathons, building a startup MVP, or just tired of copying code you don't understand, this workshop will give you the confidence to build, iterate, and scale real projects.

​Walk away with the skills to replicate everything you learned on your own - plus the freedom to experiment, the power to build, and the confidence to iterate on future projects!
