Build and launch a website or app: Step-by-step guide with AI tools

Overview

This 4-hour workshop is for anyone who wants to create a website or app to showcase their work, business or idea.

You’ll learn how to build user-friendly digital products using AI-powered, no-code tools - no prior experience needed.

Who it’s for

This workshop is open to all UCL students, staff, and alumni who graduated from UCL within the past 2 years.

As this is a bootcamp-style workshop, where you’ll be creating different assets, we encourage you to come with a business idea or project in mind.

For help coming up with ideas, come to one of our 2-hour introductory sessions:

• How to come up with a startup idea that solves a real problem

UCL doctoral students will receive two DocSkills training points via InkPath and the Doctoral School for completing this workshop.

By the end of the workshop you'll have:

• a first version of your website or app
• a personal brand kit and logo
• a curated toolkit of no-code and AI tools
• prompt templates for Claude and ChatGPT
• a clear roadmap for what to build next
