The honest version of no-code: AI writes real production code, and you learn to direct it. In 12 weeks you’ll take an idea to a working, launched app, and own every line of it.

Yes, but the way you do it changed completely in the last two years. The old no-code answer was drag-and-drop builders: quick to start, painful to scale, and your product lives inside someone else's platform forever.
The new answer is AI-assisted development. Tools like Cursor, Claude, and v0 write real production code: React Native apps, Next.js sites, Supabase backends, all from plain-English direction. You don't write the code, but you own it: standard, portable, hireable-developer-readable code, with no platform lock-in and no per-user pricing traps.
The catch: directing AI well is a skill. You need to know what to ask for, how to evaluate what comes back, and how to debug when it breaks. That skill, plus the design and product thinking that makes an app worth building, is what this course teaches. It's the "build" phase of our 12-week program, wrapped in the full journey from idea to launch.
An AI-first code editor: describe what you want, review what it builds, iterate. This is where your app takes shape.
Planning features, generating code, explaining errors in plain English, and getting unstuck at 11pm.
Generates polished, working UI components from prompts and designs: your interface, production-ready.
Database, authentication, and storage with a friendly dashboard. Your app's backend, no server admin required.
The frameworks your AI-written code runs on: native iOS/Android apps or full web apps, your choice.
Version control for your project, so nothing is ever lost, and so future collaborators can join cleanly.
Every cohort ships real products: marketplace apps, habit trackers, community tools, booking systems, niche social apps, about 65% native mobile, 35% web. Each one goes through the same arc: validated in weeks 1–2, designed in Figma in weeks 3–6, built in weeks 7–10, and launched in weeks 11–12. See the complete list of artifacts on what you build.
Real testers on real devices before launch, and your first bug reports, handled with AI at your side.
Listings, screenshots, review guidelines: the bureaucratic maze, guided step by step.
A landing page, a Product Hunt-style launch plan, and analytics with PostHog to see what real users do.
By the end of the program, you'll have a working application in users' hands, and the durable skill underneath it: the ability to keep building products without writing traditional code.
