FOR vibe coders

2-HOUR HACKATHONS THAT ACTUALLY WORK

Working apps. Real projects. The kind of stuff you can show people. No "someday." You walk out with something.

  • Four people gathered around a laptop at a candlelit pub table, building together

    not only for TECH folks

    Your day job can be anything. Designer, chef, accountant, teacher. You bring passion. We handle the framework.

  • A presenter smiling beside a projector screen showing a playful demo app with cat-ear filters

    LOW BARRIER, HIGH IMPACT

    No prerequisites. No gatekeeping. If you can think of an idea, you can build it here. Beginners ship real apps alongside experienced builders.

  • A group leaning in around laptops at a bar table, learning from each other

    LEARN FROM THE ROOM

    Best ideas in the room become your ideas. Peer learning beats tutorials every time. You'll see how others think and solve problems differently.

From "What If?" โ†’ to a Vibe App

get inspired by community

In every session, our members move from a blank screen to a functional project in under 120 minutes. No matter your level, you can ship:

Immersive 3D

Building interactive 3D apps and environments from scratch.

Motion Tracking

Real-time body, face, and object detection

Open Data Integration

Playing with live APIs from NASA, global finance, or geo-mapping.

The Unexpected

From a hand standing trainer tracker to a finger-controlled game. If you can vibe it, you can build it.

FOR CITY LEADERS

START A CHAPTER IN YOUR CITY!

You pick the location. You host the first event. The community grows from there. 4,000+ members started exactly where you are now.

How It Works

  1. 1/ RUN first pop-up

    Pick a venue: a cafe, studio, bar, and host your first 2-hour event. We handle the framework. You bring the community.

  2. 2/ support your folks

    People show up. They bring friends. You become the familiar face. Word spreads because the experience is real.

  3. 3/ LEAD community

    You're no longer running an event. You're leading a movement in your city. The builders trust you. The culture is yours.
