Build and launch your own AI-powered design tool from scratch in a practical, collaborative workshop designed to change the way you work. Whether you've never opened a terminal before or already write code every day, Tom and Jonny will guide you through creating something genuinely useful.
AI is transforming how designers build products, but keeping up with the pace of change can feel overwhelming. This workshop gives you the space, structure and support to go beyond experimentation and actually build something useful.
By the end of the session you'll have built, deployed and shared a working tool that you can continue developing after the conference. The session is designed to meet designers wherever they are whether you've never opened a terminal before or already write code every day.
Learn by building rather than watching. Create a genuinely useful design tool you can continue using after the event. Gain confidence working with AI coding tools, collaborate with other designers exploring AI, and develop practical skills you can take back to your team immediately.
Designers of all technical abilities. Whether you're completely new to building with AI or already comfortable writing code, the workshop is designed to meet you where you are.
