Build real apps with AI without writing code

A Course Delivered By Industry Expert Uvin Withana.

Increase speed, unlock confidence and launch working apps.

Vibe Coding Fundamentals is a four-week live online course from the Academy of Digital Industries that teaches non-technical professionals to scope, design and build functional applications with AI, then deploy them to the cloud. Leave with a live URL, documentation and the confidence to keep building.

Who Is This Course For?

  • Marketing professionals who want campaign tools and dashboards quickly

  • Operations and logistics managers who need simple workflow apps or trackers

  • Product managers prototyping features

  • Designers and creatives with product ideas

  • Entrepreneurs and solo founders launching MVPs fast (primary audience)

  • Career changers seeking an accessible entry to tech

We understand that formal certifications like B2 can be long and expensive, and many of our learners may not have them. However, we do expect learners to have conversational English and to be working in a professional environment where English is used regularly.

Learning Outcomes And Objectives

By the end of the programme you will be able to:

  • Turn ideas into functional applications without coding

  • Write effective prompts that guide AI through build tasks

  • Document and explain your build for stakeholders and handover

  • Deploy apps to platforms like Vercel and Render

  • Identify and mitigate common risks such as API key leakage or GDPR pitfalls

  • Cut time to launch from months to weeks and collaborate better with technical teams

Course objectives: understand limits and potential of AI-powered building, develop structured scoping and prompting, apply UX-first methods, build step-by-step using safe workflows, deploy with free-tier hosting, and produce an accountability pack.

Background: Why It Matters Now

Professionals are adopting AI rapidly and low/no-code is accelerating app creation across organisations. Alongside the opportunity sit real risks like prompt injection and sensitive information disclosure, so Fundamentals bakes in responsible practices from day one

Final Project & Deliverables

You will leave with:

  • A working deployed app.

  • A documentation and accountability pack covering decisions, risks and next steps

  • A prompt and workflow library you can reuse

  • A UX map and user flow diagram for your app

  • Clean handover guidance for developers to continue or scale the project

  • Responsible by design: safety, governance and risk awareness included

  • Mentor expertise: practitioners with industry credibility

  • Live online for busy professionals

  • Community and alumni support

      Digital Marketing

      The digital marketing course was not only incredibly informative but also genuinely fun and engaging. Natalia created such a warm and welcoming environment - her energy and passion made every session something to look forward to. Big thanks as well to Jamie, whose professionalism and steady support as community manager made the whole experience smooth and well-organised from start to finish. I feel more confident and inspired than ever to take my next steps in digital marketing!

      Digital Marketing

      I honestly have nothing but good things to say about my experience with ADI. From the smooth onboarding to the support from our amazing Community Manager Jamie! He put his heart into making sure we were comfortable and prepared and as a result, the journey felt well thought out and easy to follow.

      Even though evening classes can be intense, this course was 100% worth it. It’s perfect if you’re looking to upskill and properly understand digital marketing, not just the surface stuff. I came in with a general idea, but it wasn’t until I completed the course that I realised how much I’d actually grown.

      The lessons gave me the confidence to really show up online. The game changer is having an industry pro like Natalia who has clear evidence and experience of how what she does brings in result and I am a clear example of that - I now understand my audience, I’ve refined my customer journey, and I feel solid in key areas like branding, funnels, content marketing, and web analytics.

      Now for the best part. The community. I felt supported every step of the way. My course mates were equally invested in each other’s journey and being in-person made the difference.  If you’re considering diving deeper into digital marketing with the right support system behind you, go for it. You won’t regret it.

      Graphic Design

      I had a really good time taking the course, and I learned a lot from Adam. It was collegiate. I think the interactiveness of the course was really, really fun. Being able to bounce ideas off one another and not just learn from Adam, but learn from one another (which) really set a good, solid foundation for graphic design.

      Digital Marketing

      The overall experience was really good in terms of getting me to understand more about the British style of doing digital marketing, because I used to be a marketer in Hong Kong, so I got to compare the practices of both places. One of the perspectives is that our course lecturer, Natalia, shared a lot of online tools and software for marketers to reach their marketing objectives. So I guess this is the most helpful stuff for me to understand the landscape.
