With vibe code, anyone can now create working code, for free. We need to ask: who is this for, what problem does it solve, and why does it work like that? They're design questions. Designers give software a human purpose. Conversation designers are adept at designing solutions to human needs - vibe code enables you to lead with design.In this course we'll learn together to build functional software with generative AI:- You'll learn prompting and vibe coding techniques- During live collaborative sessions you'll build prototypes and tools to improve your workflows- You'll also learn how to document your vibe coded software properly to keep the momentum going when you have a validated prototype- You won't need to learn how to write codeAnyone can now create working software, but what is the problem we're trying to solve? Let's learn and build together. You won't find this hard.You don't need vibe code tools. You only need an LLM and the willingness to roll up your sleeves. Let me show you how!

Build user-centered designs (without learning to code)

Build an LLM-based RAG chatbot that you can customise to your liking

Make a prompt chain tool to assess website accessibility

Create a prompt library tool that fits your unique needs

Design and build your diary for all your new AI creations!

We're going to use vibe coding to build designs that improve human lives (not just build stuff for the sake of it)

You know about user-centered design

If you've used ChatGPT, then other LLMs feel the same. We'll use Gemini and Claude for this course because they write great code

You have used ChatGPT (or other LLMs)

You don't need to be a coder, but you should be able to recognise common software components such as file types and interface types

You can name the components of software

Designers! Conversation, content, UX, product, and AI designers who design interactive software

Product managers, startup founders and solopreneurs who need to pivot and validate concepts rapidly

Curious minds who identified a need that software can solve, but can't write code
