The course // six modules, one app

Six modules. One app.

Each module ends with your ACME app one step closer to real: plan, AI teammate, GitHub, a database, the screens, and launch day.

Tools you’ll meet: Claude, GitHub, Supabase, and a few surprises.

Who it’s for // no jargon

Made for total beginners.

If you have an idea, a laptop and some curiosity, you’re ready. No maths degree, no coding background.

Dreamers with an idea

You’ve had an app idea for ages. Time to stop thinking and start building.

Students and career changers

Add a real project to your CV and see if tech is for you.

Small business owners

Understand how apps get made, so you can build your own or brief a team.

Module by module // the plan

What happens each week.

  1. From idea to plan

    Turn a fuzzy idea into a plan you can actually build.

  2. Meet your AI teammate

    The day you realise you’re not building alone.

  3. A home for your code

    Where real developers keep their work, and now you do too.

  4. Give your app a memory

    Sign-ins, saved data and the magic behind every app you use.

  5. ACME comes alive

    Screen by screen, your plan turns into something you can tap.

  6. Ship it

    Launch day. Send the link to everyone you know.

What you walk away with // something real

Leave with something real.

Your own working app

A live ACME app you can open on your phone and show your friends.

A proper app plan

The kind of plan real teams use before they build anything.

An AI teammate

The confidence to work with AI like a pro, not just chat with it.

A portfolio project

Real code in your own account, ready for your CV or your next idea.

Do I have to pay for the tools?

What is the ACME app?
