Day by day, from switches to shipped.
Go from a blank page to a real, published, verified booking app — and understand every step you took. Roughly 7 hours of lesson time across five days — go faster or slower as life allows; nothing locks behind a date.
First steps
8 lessons · ~1.9 h · you ship: A calculator · The tip calculatorNo theory for theory's sake. You meet the machine as it really is — billions of switches that cannot guess what you mean — walk the 180 years it took to make talking to it bearable, and then build two small apps of your own and prove they work.
The real project begins
7 lessons · ~1.7 h · you ship: The booking page, v1 · Give the studio an identityA real client with a real problem: Mara runs a pottery studio and books classes through three different inboxes. You learn to hear requirements inside a rambling brief, cut scope without cutting the point, ship her booking page, and give it her identity — then discover, painfully, what a page still cannot do.
Make it work for real
5 lessons · ~1.5 h · you ship: Make the booking form actually book · The bug reportBookings that survive a refresh. This is where data enters the story, and where the app stops lying about what it remembers.
Ship it
3 lessons · ~55 min · you ship: Put it on a real URL · The broken bakeryGetting it in front of real people: what "live" actually means, a real address, and a final challenge you pass with nobody helping you.
Make it yours
4 lessons · ~1.1 h · you ship: Pictures that are yours · Make Mara's page yoursDiscover, try, do, check, reflect
What this is and why it exists — in plain words, before any jargon is allowed in.
A question before the teaching. Your answer stays yours until the lesson reveals its own.
Something to poke: switches, a punch card, a live app you can break on purpose.
Your ask, in your own words — and a real app comes back and gets tested.
Answers hidden until you commit. Ozzy explains every one out loud, right or wrong.
Say the idea back in your own words. That conversation is what makes it stick.
