Teaching beginners to ship software
18 yrs: AWS, Microsoft, Cisco, Stanford


You have ideas. You've never written a line of code. Until recently, that was the end of the story.
Not anymore. With Replit you describe what you want in plain English, watch it get built in the browser, and learn what is actually happening underneath - one working project at a time. No installs, no setup rabbit holes.
This is a hands-on course for complete beginners, taught by Amish Suchak and Brandon Middleton: 8 hours of live instruction across 4 weeks, and a deployed, shareable URL every single week.
Week 1: a personal portfolio site, live on the internet.
Week 2: a full-stack notes app with a real database and logins.
Week 3: an AI micro-product with a Stripe paywall.
Week 4: your own idea, built start to finish and demoed.
You build during class. You ship between classes. You leave with four live links - and one of them is entirely yours.
Go from never having written code to shipping four live products - including one you invented, designed and built yourself.
Set up Replit and your first workspace, then hold a real conversation with an AI that writes the code for you.
Use Git without the ceremony: commits, branches and pushing, explained in 20 minutes.
Deploy a personal portfolio site to a live URL that anyone in the world can visit.
Understand frontend vs backend by looking at your own code, not abstract diagrams.
Use Replit's built-in database and auth, so a refresh no longer erases everything.
Apply design fundamentals - spacing, hierarchy, contrast - that make an app feel good to use.
See what an API really is by calling a public one, then work with LLM prompts, models and API keys.
Add an AI feature to your own product: summarize, generate or chat.
Put a Stripe paywall in front of it and run checkout end to end in test mode.
Get a key, describe the integration, test it - the loop that works for almost any service you will ever add.
Explore Replit Agent, integrations and secrets - the tools that extend what you can build.
Debug with confidence when something breaks, instead of starting over.
Pitch your idea in one sentence and scope it down to something you can actually ship.
Build it in a live sprint with instructors floating, then present it on demo day.
Add a custom domain and frame it for your portfolio, LinkedIn and the world.

Built and deployed Percruit, a $2M+ valued app, by prompting not coding.

18 years in tech at AWS, Microsoft, Cisco and Stanford. Berkeley MBA.
Complete beginners who have never written a line of code, but have an idea they keep thinking about.
Founders, marketers, designers and operators who are tired of waiting on a developer to test a simple idea.
Anyone who has tried a tutorial, built nothing real, and wants to finish four weeks with live products instead of notes.

Four deployed projects, not four sets of notes
Every week ends with something real on the internet: a portfolio site, a full-stack notes app, an AI micro-product with a paywall, and finally your own idea. You finish the course with four live URLs you can send to anyone.
Two instructors in the room
Amish and Brandon both teach live, so when you get stuck during a build sprint there is someone free to unblock you instead of a queue.
A bonus recorded library
Recorded deep dives kept outside the live 8 hours so the sessions stay focused: e-commerce and checkout flows, Chrome extensions, mobile apps with React Native, and automated dev workflows.
