build with gabe

VibeCode · 4 weeks · starts Monday 12 October 2026

Learn to build your own software with AI.

A live bootcamp for people who keep having ideas and keep needing someone else to build them. Over four weeks you build yours yourself, with AI writing the code and me teaching you how to direct it.

No coding experience required. Prefer one-to-one?

What you build

Not notes. Not a certificate. A product you built, with a URL.

  • A working digital product
  • A database
  • A usable interface
  • Authentication where it is needed
  • Real functionality, not a demo
  • The integrations your product needs
  • A deployed application
  • A live URL you can share

You will not build the same todo app as everyone else. You pick your own project before the first session: a marketplace, an internal tool, a booking platform, an AI app, a directory, a dashboard. Every session is applied to it.

Who it is for

People with ideas who are done waiting on a developer.

  • Founders who want an MVP before hiring engineers
  • Entrepreneurs testing a new business idea
  • Designers who want their designs to actually work
  • Product managers who want to prototype their own ideas
  • Creators building tools for their audience
  • Small business owners digitising how they work
  • Anyone who keeps having ideas for apps and cannot build them
  • No previous coding experience is required. You do need to be willing to experiment, solve problems, and actually build.

How it runs

Idea, prototype, product, integrations, debugging, ship.

  1. 01

    From idea to prototype

    What vibe coding is and isn't. How applications actually fit together: frontend, backend, database, auth, APIs, hosting. Enough of it to tell when AI is building the wrong thing. How to cut your idea down to the smallest useful version instead of the version that never ships, describe it to AI, and get something running on your screen. Including how to work without burning money: what a token is, what you are charged for, and the habits that turn a $200 week into a $20 one.

    It won't be perfect. That's the point.

  2. 02

    Build the real product

    Pages and navigation. Interfaces people can use. Databases, so your product remembers things. Sign-up, login and protected areas. Forms that save what they collect. The rules that make your product yours. Built in a way that transfers: standard tools, sensible structure, code you could hand to a developer later without starting again.

    Your prototype becomes a product with users and data.

  3. 03

    Make it actually useful

    Payments, AI features, email, SMS, maps, file uploads, notifications, webhooks. Plus the skill that outlasts all of them: reading a service’s documentation with AI, so you can integrate things nobody taught you.

    It stops feeling like a demo.

  4. 04

    Debugging with AI

    Something will break. Reading errors, using developer tools, checking logs, isolating a problem, keeping AI from rewriting code that already works, and recognising when it is going in circles. Then testing what you built, so the next break is one you find before your users do.

    Instead of typing "it’s still not working" for the ninth time.

  5. 05

    Security and production basics

    Environment variables, API keys, what is public and what is not, database permissions, user access, handling sensitive information, basic production checks.

    And knowing when you should not vibe code something yourself.

  6. 06

    Ship it

    Deployment, hosting, a custom domain, analytics, error monitoring, mobile, basic SEO, polish, and collecting feedback once people are using it. Including what running it actually costs and how to keep that near zero until you have users worth paying for.

    Then ship. Not someday.

Also in the cohort

A guest session

One session is given by a guest, someone building and shipping in the wild, talking about what that actually takes.

Also in the cohort

How I did it

A session on my own path: what I taught myself, what I built, where it went wrong, and what I would skip if I were starting now.

Who is teaching it

Gabriel Olokunwolu

Founder and software infrastructure engineer

I have spent over a decade building technology and commerce systems, including at Microsoft, Nike, Intuit and WWE. I am the founder and CEO of Khaime, a venture-backed commerce infrastructure company building the technology businesses use to sell and operate globally.

None of that started with a degree in it. I was largely self-taught. I learned by building, that turned into a career working on technology at some of the largest companies in the world, and then into building my own products.

VibeCode is that idea without the decade: you do not need to spend years becoming a traditional software engineer before you can turn an idea into a working product.

Beyond the sessions

You are not on your own when it ends.

Three more weeks of support

The cohort ends before most builds do. For three weeks after the last session you stay in the support channel, where people are on hand to answer questions when you get stuck.

The community, for good

A permanent channel with everyone who has been through this: opportunities, introductions, meetups, and other people building at the same time as you.

The next cohort

$1,500

Four weeks of live sessions. Your idea, your project, your hands on the keyboard.

Payments are non-refundable.

Working on something specific?

Coaching is one-to-one and shaped around what you are building. Tell me what you have, where you are stuck, and what you want to ship.
