Vibe Coding — Describe It, Ship It

Describe the tool you wish existed, and leave with it built, deployed, and live on the web.

ToolsClaude Code (full-stack build) · Vercel V0 · React · Vercel · GitHub

What it is

Most people who want software do not want to learn to program; they want the thing. Vibe coding is the practice of describing what you need in plain language, watching it get built, and then steering it — reading the result, saying what is wrong, and going again. Two hours is enough to go from a sentence to a working site at a real address.

The register has the proof. Radical Revision, the poetry revision-prompt generator built with Professor Amy Lemmon, started as a description of what a poet needed when a draft would not move; it is a deployed React app now. The Innovative Technology Club's avatar workshop shipped the same way and outlived the meeting, because a site members can revisit is worth more than a demo they watched.

What you leave with

A working web app of your own, deployed at a URL you can hand to a class the same week.

Who it is for

This one is open to FIT faculty and students alike. Set aside 2 hours.

What you need to know already — No experience necessary

Dates

Seat counts are the size of the room, not a live count of who has signed up — if a session has filled, it says so below. Dates are set by the lab and can move.

  1. · 12.30pm–2.30pm FRS Lab · No limit on numbers
  2. · 12.30pm–2.30pm FRS Lab · 16 seats

It has run once before, most recently on Tuesday 22 September 2026.

Want it for your class?

This one runs again whenever there is a room and a reason. If the dates above do not work, or you want it built around a course you are teaching, say so — and if what you are after is not in the catalogue at all, say that instead. Both start the same way.
