HAAPSALU – AI and Creativity: From Idea to Working Solution

How do you get from an idea to a prototype? In this workshop, you’ll go through the steps of creating a prototype with the help of AI and build your first solution or website in an AI-supported environment. Participation is free, but places are limited.

Workshop structure:
• In the first part, you’ll learn about the process of creating a prototype and a minimum viable product (MVP), and get an overview of AI solutions that help refine and implement ideas.
• In the second part, you’ll create your own prototype in a practical exercise, moving from writing requirements to building, testing and publishing it for use.

In the workshop, you will:
• define your prototype’s purpose, target audience and main requirements;
• prepare a clear brief for AI;
• create a development plan with AI;
• build a prototype in Lovable;
• check and test its core functions and make improvements;
• learn how to publish your prototype for use and what security and privacy requirements to consider.

Audience: office and project workers, HR professionals, managers, entrepreneurs and other specialists in their fields.

Tools: You’ll use Gemini, Copilot or ChatGPT to refine your ideas and brief and plan the development. You’ll build the prototype in Lovable.

Workshop outcome: By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a first prototype that you can continue developing independently. You’ll also receive slides to help you repeat the entire process later.

Before the workshop: Think about what kind of prototype you want to create and what problem it could solve. Bring your computer and, preferably, create a Lovable account before the workshop.
