Course Description
Without writing a single line of code, you can turn your idea into a real, live app. SMB owners walk away with hands-on ability to build automation tools for their business (bookings, quotations, expense claims, customer management) — no outsourced development needed. Working adults gain one of the most in-demand skills of the AI era, sharpening their career competitiveness. Teens learn to turn creativity into working products fast, giving them a real edge in innovation competitions and project-based learning. Designed by the INSPIRE® Education Team, this workshop uses the same teaching frameworks we deliver in formal programmes for Hong Kong schools and organisations (SWDCA system design, CCF prompting, EAT testing) — and our team has published multiple live public apps built with Vibe Coding since 2025. Two sessions, 5 hours total, with dedicated 1-on-1 guidance — you leave with a real, published app that is entirely yours.
What You Will Achieve
SMB Owners: Automate Your Business with Your Own Apps
Learn to build booking systems, quotation tools, expense claim managers and customer databases tailored to your own operations — no outsourced developers, no monthly software subscriptions.
Working Adults: Gain the Defining Skill of the AI Era
Natural language is the new programming language. Learn prompt engineering and AI-assisted development to digitise repetitive workflows and build a competitive edge that is hard to replace.
Teens: Build Real Power for Innovation Projects
Learn to turn creative ideas into working products fast — showcase a live, published app in innovation competitions, STEM projects and your portfolio, one step ahead of your peers.
Walk Away with a Live, Published App
Go from idea to deployment on Base44, finishing a practical app with login and permission control, published live with its own URL — entirely yours.
Learn Professional Development Frameworks
Master the SWDCA system design, CCF prompting and EAT testing frameworks — the same methodology we teach in formal programmes for Hong Kong schools and organisations — so you can build new projects independently.
Zero Code, 1-on-1 Dedicated Instruction
No programming at any point. Your instructor works 1-on-1 to shape the project around your business, work or interests, so you understand every step.
Tools & Platforms Used
Workshop Highlights
01/ Session 1: Vibe Coding Foundations & Prompt Engineering (2.5 hours)
- The Vibe Coding paradigm shift: from "writing code" to "speaking the vibe" — how AI is overturning traditional software development, and why end-to-end design thinking and precise expression are the most valuable skills of the AI era.
- Strengths & limits of mainstream LLMs: understand the differences between GPT, Gemini, Claude and more, and choose the right tool for each task.
- Hands-on with the CCF prompt framework: structure instructions with Context, Content and Format, generate text and images live, then analyse gaps and refine iteratively for precision and consistency.
- Intro to SWDCA top-level design: plan your app before building across five dimensions — Stakeholders, Workflow, Data, Control, Authentication.
- Live build: create an instruction-based AI chat agent with its own persona and knowledge base, and experience fine-tuning its tone and logic.
02/ Session 2: Hands-on Base44 Development, Testing & Launch (2.5 hours)
- Start from your real needs: following your Session 1 SWDCA design, build your own app on Base44 — e.g. a booking system with login and permission control, an expense tracker that reads receipts via OCR, or an idea from your own work and life.
- Front-end & database construction: prompt AI to generate the app structure, interface and flows, design a structured database, and implement login and access control.
- Advanced features (by progress): connect external systems via API (such as open government data) or extract data automatically from uploaded documents (OCR).
- EAT testing & debugging: test your app across three layers — End-to-End (full user flows), Access (cross-device responsive), Load (stress) — and learn to capture and describe bugs precisely for AI to fix.
- One-click launch & showcase: deploy your app live with its own URL, and present your design rationale using the SWDCA framework.
03/ After the Course: Keep Building
- Maintenance & version control: learn change-log practices so you can keep iterating with confidence.
- Usage analytics: track how your app is used with Base44's built-in analytics.
- Keep creating: with the "ideate → describe → observe → refine" mindset, you can add new features by prompt anytime — or start your next project.
