The demo

What it looks like when it’s working

In the room · 45 minutes

What you’ll build

Single page. Name, 2-line bio, 3 things you're proud of, one photo. Deploy to a real URL via Vercel/Netlify drag-and-drop. That's it.

The moment it clicks

“I have a website I can text my mom.”

Things to think about

While you build

  • The hardest input is you. Use the Spec Talk to get unstuck — out loud, with the room. It's much easier to describe yourself when someone else is asking.
  • Pick the photo before the bio. The photo sets the tone for everything else on the page.
  • A live URL today beats a perfect site next week. Drag-and-drop deploy first; iterate on copy after.
  • Resist adding a blog, a contact form, a guestbook. All polished version — every one is its own afternoon.
The 2-hour Jam rhythm

How the night flows

Every Coding Jam follows the same five-phase shape. Talking is short, building is long.

  1. 0:00 – 0:05
    Intro

    Welcome, name tags, snacks within reach. The facilitator sets the tone: low pressure, high creativity, ship something messy.

  2. 0:05 – 0:15
    The Demo

    Facilitator demos the polished version of tonight's project. Live or pre-recorded. The message: this is what's possible.

  3. 0:15 – 0:25
    Spec Talk

    Walk the 5 questions on the projector. The output is a one-page PRD that Antigravity will turn into UI + engineering docs.

  4. 0:25 – 1:30
    Build (codelab)

    Participants run the codelab. Antigravity writes the code; they direct it. Six phases inside this hour: Setup → Plan → Review → Build → API → Verify. Fix the doc, not the code.

  5. 1:30 – 2:00
    Sharing

    Three volunteer screen-shares. Celebrate the messy, brilliant, half-finished prototypes. Quick wrap-up. Tease the next jam.

Polished version pulls in

Where to take it after the jam

The 45-minute build is the win in the room. These are the ideas you can pull in over the next week — your homework isn’t homework, it’s the polished version.

  • Custom domain
  • Blog/log section
  • Contact form
  • Guestbook
  • Seasonal/animated theme
  • Links-tree mode
  • AI-generated 'sounds like you' refinements
If you get stuck

Open one of these in the starter — safety nets, not requirements.

  • context/self-writing-prompts.md

Magic Hour turns a screenplay into a consistent storyboard: your characters keep the same face and voice from scene 1 to scene 18, because every generated frame is scored against a locked identity card. A pre‑viz studio for filmmakers, with AI shot lists, in‑character dialogue, and real location scouting.

“I assumed character drift was the image model being inconsistent but the model was fine all along; the drift came entirely from us re‑describing the character on every call instead of compiling her look once and reusing it verbatim.”
