Vibe Coding: Build Real Apps Without Learning to Code

The course starts with core concepts and shows how to use AI tools to build web applications without writing code. It covers the three-layer architecture of web applications (frontend, backend, database), writing product briefs that reduce the risk of building incorrect or misaligned features, and developing prompt design skills, including describing outcomes precisely, controlling scope, and preserving working features during iteration. The course uses two tools: Lovable for browser-based prototyping and Claude Code for terminal-based work on project files. You’ll build a complete booking application called PawPals across all ten lessons. You will learn to debug AI output critically by reading error messages, catching silent failures, and identifying which layer broke. The course explains how large language models actually work, including tokens, context windows, model tiers, and why AI sometimes forgets or hallucinates, so you understand the system's predictable failure modes. You will connect your app to Supabase for database and authentication, integrate Stripe for payments, and deploy to Vercel with a real public URL. Upon completion, you will have a production app with user accounts, data persistence, and payment processing, plus a repeatable process: specify clearly, iterate deliberately, debug systematically, and know your limits. The course ends with an honest look at where vibe coding excels and where it breaks down, so you recognize when to build yourself and when to bring in professional engineers.
