No-Code Product Prototyping
Can you build a working product prototype without writing a single line of code yourself? How can a non-technical founder test an idea over a weekend instead of waiting months for a developer? And where is the line beyond which you can no longer do without a programmer?
At this workshop, we’ll explore vibe coding and how it is changing the way products are built. Instead of writing code yourself, you describe what you want in natural language, and an AI assistant builds the solution for you. We’ll explore the key tools, including Replit, Claude, and others, their strengths, and the use cases they are best suited for. Together, we’ll go from an initial idea to a working prototype that you can present to users and investors.
We’ll also focus on the limitations: where vibe coding falls short, what mistakes beginners make, and how to avoid turning a quick prototype into technical debt. We’ll discuss how startups can integrate this approach into hypothesis testing and shorten the cycle from idea to market feedback.
Workshop agenda:
- Introduction: What is vibe coding, and why is everyone talking about it?
- Tool overview: Replit, Claude, and other AI assistants. Which tool should you choose for your needs?
- Hands-on practice: Build a working prototype from scratch without programming skills.
- Common mistakes and limitations: When does vibe coding fail?
- Vibe coding for startups: Rapid hypothesis testing and MVP development.
- Q&A session.
Who should attend?
Early-stage startup founders, product managers, entrepreneurs without a technical background, and anyone who wants to test ideas quickly and turn them into working prototypes.
