Start building your first app with AI, in one evening

No coding experience needed. Bring a laptop, get hands-on with AI, and leave with a plan and a real start on your own app. An evening workshop in Eindhoven, taught by a professional developer.

Small group · Beginners welcome · English & Dutch

For the curious

You've always wanted to build an app, a tool, a game or something of your own. Tonight you finally start, with AI doing the heavy lifting and someone there to help.

For business owners

You need software for your business but can't justify a developer's bill. Learn how to build it yourself with AI, and see how far you can get on your own.

Who teaches it

Tim Bijnen

Hi, I'm Tim. I build software for a living and I make electronic music for the love of it, and Bezige Bijnen is where those two worlds meet.

These days I work as a freelance developer at ASML.

    Decide what you want to build and make a plan for it.

  3. 3

    Build it with AI, hands-on, with guidance whenever you get stuck.

  4. 4

    Step back, look at what you made, and talk about where to take it next.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need any coding experience?+

None at all. This is for complete beginners.

What do I need to bring?+

A laptop and its charger, and a free Claude account. Everything runs in the browser, nothing to install.

What if I've never made anything technical?+

Perfect. That's exactly who this evening is for.

Is it in English or Dutch?+

Slides are in English; it's taught in both English and Dutch, so you can follow either way.

Will my app be finished by the end of the evening?+

Probably not, and that's fine. In one evening you'll make a solid start and learn how it's done. If you want to finish it and go further, the 8-session course is built for exactly that.

What happens after I reserve?+

You'll get an email with a link to pay the 20% deposit within 5 days. Once that's in, your spot is confirmed and we'll send the exact address and a short checklist. The remaining 80% is due up to 24 hours before the workshop.
