Who this course is for

This course is designed for:

• Students who want to experience coding as play rather than as a rigid task
• Beginners with little or no programming background
• Makers, designers, and tinkerers curious about rapid prototyping with v0
• Instructors who want a structured 2 hour VybeCoding session outline

You do not need to:

• Know a specific programming language in depth
• Be comfortable with terminals or complex tools

It helps if you:

• Are comfortable using a browser
• Can follow step-by-step instructions
• Are open to experimenting and making mistakes in front of others 😊

What you will learn

By the end of this 2 hour lecture + guided lab, you should be able to:

• Explain what VybeCoding is and how it differs from traditional coding practice
• Understand the core flow of a VybeCoding session using v0
• Set up your v0 environment and onboarding basics
• Run through a guided VybeCoding exercise from idea → prototype → share
• Reflect on how VybeCoding can be used in future learning or projects

Course structure

The course is intentionally small and focused so it fits into one 2 hour block.

Module 1: Getting started with VybeCoding

1. Course flow and goals (~20 min)
   • What VybeCoding is
   • Why we’re using v0
   • What we’ll build together
   • How the 2 hour session is structured
2. Setup and onboarding (~20–25 min)
   • Accessing v0
   • Basic navigation
   • Core concepts you’ll touch (components, prompts, iterations)
3. First VybeCoding session (~60–70 min)
   • Warm-up mini prompts
   • Main guided build (simple interactive app)
   • Share, reflect, and next steps

How to use this course in a 2 hour lecture

A suggested timeline for instructors:

1. 0–10 min – Welcome & framing
   • Introduce VybeCoding mindset
   • Explain expectations and outcomes
2. 10–30 min – Course flow & setup
   • Walk through Module 1.1 and 1.2
   • Ensure all students can access v0
3. 30–90 min – First VybeCoding session
   • Follow Module 1.3
   • Alternate between live demo and hands-on student time
4. 90–120 min – Sharing & reflection
   • Students briefly present what they built
   • Group discussion
   • Connect to future learning opportunities

Prerequisites and materials

To run this course smoothly, make sure you have:

• Stable internet connection for everyone
• Modern browser (Chrome, Edge, or Firefox recommended)
• Access to v0 (accounts created or invited ahead of time, if required)
• Projector or shared screen for instructor demos

Optional but helpful:

• Headphones (if students prefer focus)
• A note-taking method (digital or paper) to capture ideas and prompts

Teaching tips for instructors

• Emphasize experimentation over perfection
• Keep your demo slightly ahead of the class, but pause frequently
• Encourage students to show unfinished work
• Normalize errors and glitches as part of the vibe
• Use short time-boxed challenges to keep energy high

At this level, the goal is confidence and curiosity, not mastery.
