Our Foundational Course “Ideas to Apps”
For too long, turning a brilliant idea into even a simple digital tool, app, or interactive project felt out of reach for many. The complexity of coding, the time required, or the cost of hiring developers often meant those sparks of inspiration fizzled out.
But that's changing rapidly. And that’s why we're thrilled about our foundational course "Ideas to Apps: Make AI Your Creative Toolkit". This course guides you to harness the power of everyday AI chat assistants (like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and others) to build simple, functional web applications, prototypes, tools and creative experiments.
Here’s a brief (less than 3 minutes) overview of the course:
Artificial Intelligence isn't just a buzzword; it's fundamentally changing how digital things can be made. This course gives you the practical skills to participate in this shift now. It's about unlocking AI as your personal creative toolkit – a new way to solve problems, express yourself, and quickly test your ideas.
Inspiration
A story surfaced this month from a self-described non-technical individual, X user marta_jamrozik who used AI to build the app they had always wanted. Driven by a love for art and history, they developed a tool where taking a photo generates a two-minute audio tour of the subject in view.
It’s a wonderful example of how AI can serve as a "Creative Toolkit” for people without a traditional coding background. Find more ideas and examples on our blog https://www.aha.day/p/ai-assisted-jerry-rigging and our ‘Digital Jerry Rigs’ playlist on Youtube.
Also legendary music producer Rick Rubin has been talking about “vibe coding," a term that describes AI-assisted coding where developers focus on ideas and intent rather than technical syntax.
We’ll be adding a longer piece on Rubin’s views shortly on our blog, but to hear it straight from the horses mouth—especially if you’re a huge Rubin fan—we suggest watching this interview:
