The First Non-Tech Buildathon is a free, hands-on afternoon designed for people who want to build with AI but do not have a technical background. No coding experience is required. We’ll begin with a short introduction to using an AI coding agent. Then participants will have time to create a working project, with live help available throughout the afternoon. We’ll finish with a community showcase and a few fun awards. Learn, build, and ship in one afternoon. Bring a fully charged laptop. Registration is required on both Luma and the AWS Builder Loft portal. The AWS registration link is available on the Luma page.

Disclaimer: Please double check event information with the event organizer as events can be canceled, details can change after they are added to our calendar, and errors do occur.
