The problem
Your idea has waited for months. It could exist by Friday night.
Since 2025, artificial-intelligence tools make it possible to build a working application by describing what you want, in plain French — what some call "vibe coding". It is neither magic nor limitless: but what used to take three months now takes a few days. These three evenings exist to make you do it with your own hands, not to tell you about it.

- Online by Friday night of the same week
- You know how to make it evolve yourself
- Code, accounts and address in your name
What you leave with
A live application
A public web address that works on your phone.
Your own accounts
Accounts, code, hosting — all in your name. Nothing stays with us.
A 20-page handbook
Prompt templates, checklists, mistakes to avoid.
An honest estimate
What your full project would genuinely require.
Three sessions, from framing to going live
Because you work.
Sessions start at 5:30 pm, after the office day, and end at 8:00 pm. No leave to request, no day to sacrifice.
Because it works better.
Between Monday and Wednesday, then Wednesday and Friday, you continue on your own. You get stuck, you try, you come back with real questions. That is exactly what happens once the workshop is over: we prefer it to start while we are still there to answer.
-
01
Monday 5 October
17:30 → 20:00
Frame and start
Account creation, activating the international payment method, installing the tools. Then framing: your project in one sentence and four screens. Framing determines 80% of the result, so we give it the time it deserves. You leave with your first generated screen.
Between sessions: you refine your framing and try two or three variants. Twenty to thirty minutes are enough.
-
02
Wednesday 7 October
17:30 → 20:00
Build and fix
The heart of the workshop. The AI produces, you direct. You learn to read an error, rephrase, iterate — and above all to correct the AI when it gets it wrong, which happens. You leave with an application that runs on your machine.
Between sessions: you add a feature of your choice, on your own.
-
03
Friday 9 October
17:30 → 20:00
Go live and set the limits
Deployment, web address, testing on your own phone. What is not online does not exist. Then the limits, no sugar-coating: what holds up, what breaks, the real costs, and when you actually need a developer. The evening ends with a three-minute presentation by each participant.
Who this workshop is for
Entrepreneurs and SME leaders
You want an internal tool, an online catalogue, an order form — without mobilising a development budget.
Freelancers and project owners
You have an idea to test before putting money into it. A prototype beats a business plan.
Digital professionals
Designers, community managers, project managers: you want to broaden your offer and charge more than a communication gig.
What this workshop is not
-
It is not a developer training.
You will not be able to code when you leave. You will be able to build.
-
It is not enough for a critical application.
A platform handling money or sensitive data needs a real developer. We will tell you frankly where your project stands.
-
It is not free to maintain.
The tools cost 13,000 to 16,000 FCFA per month. We also show you the free alternatives, and what they involve.
Tools used
What to bring
- A personal laptop — essential, we do not lend any
- An active MTN MoMo or Orange Money account, with 5,000 FCFA of balance to activate the tools
- A project idea, even a vague one — we help you refine it
- No programming knowledge required
The day before the first session, you receive on WhatsApp the list of accounts to create before coming.

Frequently asked questions
No. The workshop is designed for non-technical profiles. You describe what you want in French, the AI produces the code. Knowing how to use a computer and a browser is enough.
Yes, a simple and functional one: a dynamic showcase site, a catalogue, an order form, an internal tool. Not a full platform with payments and user accounts — that takes several weeks, covered by our long track.
Because beyond that, the trainer can no longer sit behind each participant. In a building workshop, that close follow-up is what makes the difference between leaving with an application and leaving with notes.
You catch up during the next session, at no cost. Just let us know in advance.
Entirely. The code, the address and all the accounts are created in your name from the first session.
Between 13,000 and 16,000 FCFA per month depending on the tool. We also show you the free versions, which are enough to keep learning.
With a virtual Mastercard backed by your MTN MoMo or Orange Money account. We activate it with you during the first session — it is the main obstacle in Cameroon, and it takes ten minutes to solve.
Yes, a personal laptop is essential. We do not provide any.
In cash at the front desk, by MTN Mobile Money or by Orange Money. In every case, a 5,000 FCFA deposit confirms your registration; the balance is due at the first session.
In French. An English session is organised on request from three participants.
Yes, a Honowa Academy attendance certificate. For a recognised qualification certificate, go for our long tracks — Honowa Academy is accredited by MINEFOP.
You join the participants' WhatsApp group and you can continue on the full track, with the workshop fee deducted.
Custom training These times do not suit you? We run one-to-one or very small-group sessions at the times you choose: mornings, weekends, or remote. Tell us your availability and we come back within 24 hours with a proposal. Request a custom session
