## Three evenings. One live application.

The workshop runs in the evening, 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm, on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. In three sessions, you turn your idea into an application genuinely reachable on the internet, with AI, without writing a single line of code. Five participants maximum, so the trainer stays right behind each of you.

### Three sessions, from framing to going live
1. **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.
2. **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.
3. **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.

### 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.
- **workshop.takeaways.items.payment.title**: workshop.takeaways.items.payment.text
- **A 20-page handbook**: Prompt templates, checklists, mistakes to avoid.
- **An honest estimate**: What your full project would genuinely require.

### 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.

### Frequently asked questions
#### Do I need to know how to code?
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.

#### Can you really build an application in three evenings?
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.

#### Why only 5 participants?
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.

#### What happens if I miss a session?
You catch up during the next session, at no cost. Just let us know in advance.

#### Does the application belong to me?
Entirely. The code, the address and all the accounts are created in your name from the first session.

#### How much do the tools cost after the workshop?
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.

#### How can I pay for the tools without a bank card?
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.

#### Do I need to bring a laptop?
Yes, a personal laptop is essential. We do not provide any.

#### How do I pay for the workshop?
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.

#### Is the workshop in French or English?
In French. An English session is organised on request from three participants.

#### Will I get a certificate?
Yes, a Honowa Academy attendance certificate. For a recognised qualification certificate, go for our long tracks — Honowa Academy is accredited by MINEFOP.

#### What comes after the workshop?
You join the participants' WhatsApp group and you can continue on the full track, with the workshop fee deducted.

### Stop describing your idea. Build it.
Three evenings, 5 seats, one application online by Friday night.
