Lunch and Learn: Vibe Coding, Take Two — Drop the Vibes, Ship Production Apps

About this event

In Part One, you saw how AI can build a working web app from a plain-English description. Now for the honest follow-up: what does it take to ship something real? An app customers actually use. An app that handles data you care about. An app that can't fall over on a Tuesday. Good news: you still don't need to become an engineer. You need a lightweight process — the same discipline professional software teams use, minus the jargon. Mark Hinkle, CEO of Peripety Labs, publisher of The AIE Network, and co-organizer of the All Things AI conference, will walk through the software development lifecycle the way a business owner should hear it: as a practical checklist for keeping AI-built apps from becoming AI-built messes. What You'll Learn • The line between a weekend project and a production app — and how to know which one you're building • A plain-English tour of the software development lifecycle — plan, build, test, review, deploy, maintain • How to have AI check its own work — testing and review without needing to read the code • Version control in one sentence — and why it can save you at the worst possible moment • When to call in a professional — and how to be a great client when you do Who This Is For Anyone who attended Part One, or anyone with an AI-built app they're nervous about. Limited technical skills are fully expected. Missed Part One? Come anyway. We'll open with a quick two-minute recap. Free to attend. The video link will be visible after you RSVP.
