Build & Ship With AI: From Idea to Working Prototype

FREe SESSION

AI is changing the meaning of a prototype. Designers can now test not only what a product looks like, but increasingly how it actually behaves. The opportunity isn't to turn designers into engineers. It's to reduce the distance between an idea and something real enough to test.

COMMUNITY

From the room

“It was great, the theoretical intro was very important for me, as well as the workshop part with hands on project. I was able to follow most of the course even though my knowledge of Figma was basic - Maxime was very helpful. I attended some other workshops in recent months and this one was very well prepared. I'll be on a lookout for more workshops like these. thanks!”

Pawel Lewicki

UX Researcher

“I really like it! Learning about documentation and how designers work with the design systems, was incredibly usefull for me. I am trying to absorb all knowledge possible to make me a better designer/candidate to my future job. Thank you for helping us with this kind of tools. Now I am waiting for the next one :)”

IN-PERSON Workshop

Du bist Designer:in und möchtest KI sinnvoll in deine tägliche Arbeit integrieren?

Wir planen einen praxisnahen Workshop in Berlin. Dabei soll es nicht nur um einzelne Tools gehen, sondern darum, wie KI bei Recherche, Ideenentwicklung, visuellen Konzepten, Texten, Prototyping und wiederkehrenden Aufgaben unterstützen kann.

AI Design System Starter Kit

A minimal, structured Figma file built so that AI tools — Cursor, Codex, Claude, Figma AI — can actually read and use it. This one is opinionated about naming, tokens, components and documentation in a way that makes AI-assisted development frictionless.
