AI Fluency Week: Preparing to (Vibe) Code

This workshop’s goal is to equip participants with knowledge of foundational software project management best practices. Specifically participants will:

  • Formulate a concise problem statement, define project scope, and identify necessary documentation artifacts 
  • Discuss how to use these pre-project planning materials to set parameters when vibe coding with genAI
  • Apply Kanban principles to project tasks and translate requirements into basic architectural diagrams and UI mock-ups
  • Develop criteria for selecting appropriate development tools and languages based on project requirements

No coding experience is needed. If participants have a project that they are working on, we can use that throughout the workshop. Otherwise, example projects will be provided for participants to practice these skills.
