In this talk, Eric Albee, seasoned engineering leader/founder of EricDev Corp. breaks down Vibe Coding, a creative, accessible way to turn your ideas into working prototypes and automations — without needing to know how to code. You’ll follow his real-world developer flow using tools like Claude Code and learn how to bring ideas to life step-by-step.
Whether you’re a marketer, founder, or just AI-curious, you’ll learn how to go from idea → plan → prototype without getting lost in technical jargon. You don’t have to be a software engineer to build something powerful with AI — you just need to learn how to vibe with it.
You’ll learn:
• How to go from idea → plan → working prototype using AI
• How to give AI the right context (“breadcrumbs”) to help you build
• The developer habits that make AI collaboration smoother (even if you’ve never touched GitHub)
• How to validate ideas and communicate clearly with your AI partner
Eric will demonstrate and live-build an app with AI to show just how approachable the process can be.
By the end, you’ll see that coding with AI isn’t about syntax — it’s about creativity, clarity, and the confidence to explore.
