// WHAT YOU'LL BUILD
This. You'll build this.

By the end of June 6th, every person in the room will have built and deployed a real, working, paid app — just like this one. A note-taking app with user accounts, Stripe payments, and a live URL. Something you own. Something you can charge for. Something you can keep building.

// THE SHIFT
You've been
curious.

Maybe you've watched AI tools explode over the past two years and wondered what people are actually doing with them. Maybe you've had an app idea sitting in your notes app for years, waiting for the right developer, the right budget, the right moment.

This workshop is for both of you.

Something quiet has shifted in how software gets made. You no longer need to learn to code. You need to learn to describe what you want — clearly, patiently, in plain English — to AI tools that will build it with you.

That's it. That's the skill. We'll teach it in a single Saturday.

Bring your laptop. Bring an idea — and build something just to prove to yourself that you can. End the day with a real, working app you made.
Not a tutorial output. Not a sandbox demo. Your thing, running.
⚜ ⚜ ⚜
// WHO THIS IS FOR
The barrier moved.
You showed up at exactly the right moment.
01
The Curious
You've been watching AI from the sidelines. You want to actually try it — not just read about it. This is the room where that happens.
02
The Marketer With a SaaS Idea
You've been waiting for a technical co-founder for two years. Stop waiting. You can build it yourself — this weekend will prove it.
03
The Operator
You're duct-taping Zapier and Airtable because real software felt out of reach. It's not out of reach anymore. Not even close.
04
The Writer, Designer, Strategist
You're brilliant at describing problems but you were told you "aren't technical." That was the old world. In this one, describing problems clearly is the technical skill.
05
The Career Switcher
Wondering if it's too late to build software. It's not. The barrier moved. You walked up to it at exactly the right moment.
⚜
What You'll Leave With
A real, working app deployed to the internet. A real URL. Something you can show anyone, right from your phone. Not a proof-of-concept. Not a template. Yours — built by you, in one day.
⚜ ⚜ ⚜
// WHAT WE'LL CUT THROUGH
The pain points we hear every time.
01

"I don't know where to start."

We'll set up your tools in the first hour. Claude Code, VS Code, the works. You'll be building before 10:30 AM.

02

"I tried AI coding and it just broke everything."

The difference is in how you describe the problem. We'll teach the patterns — the ones that actually work, every time.

03

"I can prompt a chatbot but I can't build an app."

You can. The gap is smaller than you think. The same instinct that makes you good at prompting makes you good at building.

04

"I'm not a developer."

Neither are most of the people shipping the best AI products right now. That ship has sailed. Welcome to the new paradigm.

// A FEW WORDS ABOUT YOUR HOST
ROB GAUDET
SOFTWARE ENGINEER · CAJUN NAVY FOUNDER · AI BUILDER

I've been a software engineer for 30 years. I've spent the last two of them building everything with AI — including the businesses I run now. I've spent weeks at a time vibe coding around the clock.

I'm not here to gatekeep what I know. I'm here to hand it to you.

I've been covered by national media and I believe — genuinely — that New Orleans, a city full of poets and creatives, is built for this moment. Culture is the original technology. Poets will be the best builders in the AI age.

This workshop is my way of proving it, one Saturday at a time.

// ABOUT THE HOST COMMUNITY
Sugar Stack Ecosystem

This workshop is hosted by the Sugar Stack Ecosystem — a New Orleans community of AI builders, founders, and curious people learning together.

While this event is hosted at Loyola University on St. Charles Avenue, we meet regularly at The Nieux on St. Charles. You're welcome at any of it.

The connections made here don't end when the workshop does. You're joining a community of people building real things in New Orleans — the city that was always supposed to be the creative capital of the AI age.

About the Founding Cohort

This is the first run of this workshop in New Orleans. The 25 people in this room are the founding cohort — you'll shape what this becomes.

Future workshops will be larger, more structured, and priced higher. This one is intimate, experimental, and named for the people who showed up first.

⚜️ FOUNDING COHORT — JUNE 6, 2026
// WHAT COMES NEXT
Building is half the equation.
NOW OPEN

Workshop 1: Vibe Coding

Build a real working app with AI in one day. No coding background required. This is the one. June 6th, 2026 at Loyola University.

COMING SOON

Workshop 2: Go to Market

Finding people who want what you built. How to find your first customers, validate demand, and grow without a marketing team. Announced for founding cohort attendees first.

// WHAT TO BRING
Three things. Non-negotiable.
01
💻
YOUR LAPTOP

This is not optional. There is no loaner program. There is no "I'll just watch." You are building something on June 6th, and you need your machine to do it. Mac, PC, doesn't matter — bring it charged.

REQUIRED
02
🤖
CLAUDE SUBSCRIPTION

A Claude Pro subscription ($20/mo) is the primary tool we'll use. Sign up at claude.ai before you arrive. We'll be using Claude Code — the version that actually builds with you, not just talks at you.

REQUIRED
03
✍️
YOUR POETIC INNER CHILD

The ability to describe things vividly — to paint a picture in words — is the actual skill here. Poets will be the best builders in the AI age. If you've always been good with words and bad with code, you were just waiting for the right era. This is it.

BRING THIS TOO
// THE TOOLSTACK
Every tool we use is free.

The entire stack you'll build on June 6th costs $0 to start — outside of the Claude subscription. These are production-grade platforms, not toy tools. Real companies run on these.

🤖
CLAUDE CODE
$20/MO

Your AI co-builder. The one doing the heavy lifting. Describe what you want in plain English — it writes the code.

💻
VS CODE
FREE

The editor where your code lives. Free, fast, and plays perfectly with Claude Code. You probably already have it.

🗄️
SUPABASE
FREE

Your database and auth layer. If your app needs to save data or log people in, Supabase handles it — no backend degree required.

💳
STRIPE
FREE TO START

Take payments on day one. Free to set up — only costs you when you make money. If your app charges for anything, Stripe is how.

☁️
CLOUDFLARE
FREE

Where your app lives on the internet. Global CDN, free SSL, instant deploys. This is how you go from code on your laptop to a real URL in under a minute.

🎨
FAL.AI
FREE TO START

AI image and media generation. If your app needs to create visuals, fal.ai gives you access to the best models with a simple API and free credits to start.

THE MATH:  Your total startup cost for a real, deployed, payment-enabled AI app is $20/mo for Claude. Everything else is free until you're making money. That's the stack. That's the workshop.

// META PROOF
THIS PAGE WAS VIBE CODED OVER TELEGRAM.

No laptop. No IDE. No developer. Rob described what he wanted — in plain English, over Telegram messages — and an AI built this entire page in real time: the design, the copy, the Stripe payment integration, the Cloudflare deployment. Everything you see here. If you want proof of what you'll be able to do after June 6th, you're already looking at it.
