Course Overview

Programme Highlights

  • Stop typing. Start architecting.
  • Build intelligent n8n workflows—no coding required. Then shift to vibe coding: prompt-driven development from blank screen to live app. Zero manual edits.
  • Perfect for developers, IT professionals, digital transformation practitioners and entrepreneurs.

Course Objectives

  • Build automated workflows in n8n that connect APIs, transform data, and integrate AI nodes for intelligent decision-making—without writing code
  • Develop and deploy full-stack applications using pure prompt-driven development (vibe coding)—from blank screen to live URL with zero manual edits
  • Combine automation + AI development to create complete solutions: n8n for backend data flows, vibe coding for frontend interfaces, connected through APIs

What You’ll Learn

Course Structure
Part I. n8n Workflow Automation
1. Introduction to n8n & Core Concepts

  • The Automation Landscape: n8n’s node-based interface vs. other tools
  • Core Mechanics: Triggers, action nodes, credentials, and JSON data flow
  • First Workflow: Webhook/Schedule → route data → Slack/Email

2. Integrations, APIs & Data Transformation

  • Connecting Anything: HTTP Request nodes and REST API integration
  • Data Manipulation: Working with JSON, lists, and binary data
  • Logic & Routing: Switch nodes, IF conditions, and branching logic
  • Activity: Build a Lead Routing Pipeline—catch form webhook, evaluate data, route to CRM

3. Advanced n8n & AI Capabilities

  • Smart Nodes: AI actions and Model Context Protocol (MCP) in n8n
  • Code-Free Scripting: “Ask AI” in JavaScript nodes to auto-generate transformations
  • Resilience & Error Handling: Error handling, retry strategies, and catch-up webhooks
  • Morning Challenge: Add AI sentiment analysis + personalised response to Lead Routing Pipeline
  • Part II. Vibe Coding: From Manual Coding to AI-native Development

4. The Paradigm Shift & The “Vibe” Setup

  • What is “Vibe Coding”?: “Forgetting code exists” vs. agentic engineering
  • Your New Role: From doing the work to managing AI
  • Context Window Economy: How LLMs read your project (tokens, limits, memory)
  • Demo: 10-min Pomodoro Timer with Bolt.new—zero manual edits + Replit/Bolt setup
  • Hello World 2.0: Prompt “Flask app with dark-mode UI” instead of manual boilerplate

5. Prompt Engineering & Core Dev Loop

  • The S.C.R.E.A.M. Framework: Scope, Context, Requirements, Examples, Avoid, Mode
  • Exercise 1: Spec-First Design: Draft Expense Tracker PRD (schema, endpoints, components)—code later
  • Exercise 2: Iterative Development: Database Setup (SQLite/Postgres schema) → Backend CRUD endpoints → Frontend dashboard
  • Handling “Vibe Breakers” (Errors): Error recovery with “Act as Senior Debugger” prompts

6. Deployment & The Hackathon

  • Sanity Check: AI code review for security + performance
  • Connecting to the World: Prompt external API integration (stocks, weather)
  • One-Click Live: Replit Deploy / Vercel → public URL
  • Final Challenge: “The 15-Minute Hackathon”: Build a random tool (QR Generator, Time Zone Converter) from scratch and share URL
