AI Coding & App Building

Turn a small idea into a prototype you can inspect, explain and improve.

Start with a question

What is the smallest useful interaction I can build and check?

Choose one user task and describe its expected result before expanding an app idea. A small prototype makes it easier to identify unclear requirements, explain generated code and check a change.

Start with invented inputs and a function or interaction you can inspect. The lessons below cover narrowing a build brief and understanding one generated function. A working sample is a starting point for learning; it does not establish production readiness.

Alex FinnAlex Finn was a bored 30-year-old software engineer at HubSpot when he started an anonymous Twitter account in 2022. A viral thread breaking down Elon Musk's open-source X algorithm caught the attention of Musk and Mark Cuban — growing his following to 457K in two years. He quit his job in 2024, launched Creator Buddy (an AI content coaching platform) and hit $300K ARR in two weeks, and now runs the most-watched 'vibe coding' channel on YouTube at 214K subscribers. His philosophy: 1% better every day.Brian CaselBrian Casel is a designer, developer and entrepreneur who shares his work through writing, videos and podcasts. His teaching includes building software products and learning through AI-assisted design and development.Claire VoClaire Vo builds ChatPRD, hosts How I AI and shares written examples of her AI workflows. Her work connects product building, practical experimentation and clear explanations of what an AI-assisted system has actually done.David OndrejDavid Ondrej publishes videos and public resources about AI coding agents and software projects. His GitHub work includes a project-instruction template, while his YouTube channel features his own workflows and conversations with other builders.Jono Catliff AutomatableStart here for Jono Catliff's Automatable YouTube channel: n8n workflows, Claude Code builds, Make.com systems, AI agents, GoHighLevel automations, official links, and practical lessons for turning repeated business work into reusable systems.Matt ShumerMatt Shumer writes about AI agents and shares software experiments through his personal site and Something Big Is Happening. He also discusses AI as a guest in interviews; this profile connects those appearances with his own written teaching.Riley BrownRiley Brown shares demonstrations of building apps with AI coding tools. His public material includes an interval-timer example and videos on AI-assisted app development.Tina HuangTina Huang creates learning resources about AI, coding, careers and self-study. Her writing connects technical learning with project work, and her creator links lead to her YouTube channel and Lonely Octopus.
