ArchVibe
The first lesson is free, and you finish it with a working app

Build a real AI app
then learn why it breaks

You direct, the AI writes the code, and you never read a line of it. The first lesson ends with an app that runs. The other 33 exist because that first version always breaks in a new and interesting way, and nobody tells you where.

No card needed. The AI builder can be Codex on ChatGPT's free tier, which is enough for the first build. We teach with Claude Code (about $20 a month, paid to Anthropic rather than to us) and every prompt works either way.

One app, 34 lessons, every real problem

ArchVibe is a 34-lesson software architecture course for people who build apps with AI tools such as Lovable, Base44 and Claude Code: you direct, the AI writes the code, and you finish with a real app running online.

The app is an AI Trip Planner, and it grows from a single file to a production system. Each lesson breaks something, then teaches you how to fix it properly.

Ship It

Lessons 1-13. From a single file to a deployed app with streaming, auth, database, and file uploads.

Discovery

Lessons 14-17. SEO, responsive design, internationalization, and global performance.

Sell It

Lessons 18-26. Async, queues, state machines, AI cost control, payments, email, GDPR, monitoring, and analytics.

Scale It

Lessons 27-34. Docker, load balancing, cloud, testing, CI/CD, and environments.

How every lesson works

1

The broken prompt

A real prompt that builds the feature, but introduces a problem you can't see yet.

2

The fixed prompt

A prompt that solves it the right way, using the architecture concept you just learned.

3

The explanation

What changed, why it matters, and when you'll need this pattern again.

4

Adapt it

Blank prompt templates with [BRACKETS] so you can apply the concept to your own project.

Simple pricing

One-time payment. Lifetime access. No subscriptions.
