Guided buildathon to ship a real native app, not just a prototype

A lot of “vibe coding” ends in the same place: a prototype that looks like an app, but can’t become a serious product.

If you’ve built in React Native (or a web-wrapper), you know the tradeoff: speed now, compromises later. A true native Swift/SwiftUI app gives you what great mobile products are made of: performance, real iOS UI patterns, deeper access to Apple frameworks, smoother animations, and the freedom to build iOS-specific features properly — not as workarounds.

AI can accelerate you, but without guardrails you get codebase chaos: drifting structure, fragile builds, and “small changes” that break everything.

You probably felt this already: you tried iOS in Cursor / Claude Code and want something stable and scalable — or you built a prototype in vibecoding tools and now need native features and App Store-level quality.

This course is a 1-month shipping challenge: we build together from idea → scope → working Swift/SwiftUI app → App Store release, with Modaal.dev orchestrating the workflow between you, your agent, and Xcode. You’ll have async collaboration in a private community plus live sessions, with Elena as product advisor and Ivan (ex-Meta, Uber) guiding the path to release

What you’ll learn

Turn your idea into a true native iOS app in 30 days with AI. Learn the workflow to build and ship in Swift/SwiftUI—no iOS experience needed

  • Define v1 scope: screens, flows, edge cases, success metrics

  • Turn requirements into a build plan with Modaal’s spec workflow

  • Iterate in vertical slices to keep progress measurable

  • Use Modaal to enforce structure and prevent “AI drift”

  • Apply native app architecture basics: navigation, state, modules

  • Run builds in Xcode and fix issues with guided troubleshooting

  • Understand the release pipeline: signing, provisioning, TestFlight

  • Follow a submission checklist to reach “ready to submit” status

Who this course is for

  • PMs + Product Designers who define scope + flows (PRD/Figma) and want to ship an App Store-ready Swift/SwiftUI app fast.

  • Builders who already tried Cursor/Claude (or built a simple iOs app/prototype) and now want a scalable, maintainable app foundation.

  • Engineers (web/full-stack/iOS) who want to build a real native iOS app in Swift/SwiftUI using AI—without codebase chaos.

Prerequisites

  • A Mac computer to use during the hackathon.

    Native iOS apps are built on macOS. Without a Mac, you can’t run the iOS toolchain Modaal relies on.

  • Xcode installed, or the ability to install it before starting.

    Xcode is required to compile and run your iOS app. Modaal.dev needs it to produce a working build.

  • A paid Cursor or Claude Code account (active or ready to set up).

    Modaal.dev is free during the hackathon, but the agent you connect is paid and required for code generation.
