The free 'Vibe Coding' workshop in the Neslanovac city district turns young tech users into creators of digital projects.
As the summer holidays draw to a close, young tech enthusiasts gather every Saturday at the Neslanovac city district premises in Split. There, a free workshop called 'Vibe Coding' is being held, where children explore the possibilities of artificial intelligence and use it to build their own apps.
Instead of traditional programming language instruction, participants create their own concepts through hands-on activities, find solutions to challenges, and gradually build an app that they can ultimately install on their device. According to the organizers, the progress among participants is already noticeable: those who recently joined the project now independently decide on goals, seek ways to solve problems, fix errors, and collaborate with one another.
The 'vibe coding' concept allows children to connect creativity and logical thinking with modern technological tools in an accessible way. The focus is on acquiring knowledge through practical tasks and fun, without stress, with the opportunity for each child to develop their own unique project.
The workshop is led voluntarily by Danijela Dujlović, who holds a degree in civil engineering and is a member of the Neslanovac city district council, and attendance is completely free of charge.
With the new school year approaching, those interested have three more Saturdays to join the workshops. Gatherings take place every Saturday at 10 a.m. at the Neslanovac city district premises, located at Sarajevska 30D. For those unable to attend in person, online participation is also available.
There is no participation fee, and registration and more information are available via email at [email protected]. The purpose of the workshop is to introduce children to modern technologies in an inventive and clear way, enabling them to become not just consumers of technology after the summer break, but also creators of their own digital works.
