Build your own website. In a day. With AI.

A hands-on half-day workshop for business owners who want to understand how modern websites are built and walk away with a real working foundation of their own.

Demand-led scheduling. Register your interest and we will confirm the next date.

By the end of the workshop you will have

A working Next.js project set up on your own computer
A homepage with your own content, headline, and brand colours
Your site deployed live on Vercel with a real URL
A basic understanding of how to add and edit pages yourself
A clear picture of what AI tools like Claude Code can and cannot do for you
Enough knowledge to have an informed conversation with any web developer

You do not need to be technical. You do not need to know how to code. You need a laptop, a willingness to try things, and a rough idea of what you want your website to say.

What the day looks like

9:00am

Morning: Setup and foundations

We get everyone's environment set up: Node.js, VS Code, Claude Code, and a GitHub account. We look at a live Next.js project and understand what the files actually do. No jargon.

10:30am

Build: Your homepage

Using Claude Code as your co-pilot, you write your first prompts and start building your homepage. We help you describe what you want clearly so Claude produces something useful.

12:30pm

Deploy: Your site goes live

We connect your project to Vercel and deploy it to a live URL. You will have something real to show people by lunchtime.

1:00pm

Afternoon: Q&A and next steps

We discuss what you have built, what you would change, and what a sensible path forward looks like for your specific website goals. Open Q&A.

Who this workshop suits

This workshop is a good fit if you

Run or manage a small business and have some responsibility for the website
Are curious about AI and want to see what it can actually do
Have tried website builders like Wix or Squarespace and wanted more control
Are a freelancer or consultant who could use a clean, professional site
Want to reduce your dependency on expensive developers for small changes

This workshop is probably not right if you

Need a complete production-ready website for a large business (we can build that for you instead)
Have no access to a laptop
Are looking for a general introduction to AI rather than a specific hands-on build experience
