Overview

“Vibe Coding for Web Developers” is designed for roles such as Web developers in agencies and in-house teams, Freelancers building websites and web applications and Developers on CMS projects using WordPress, TYPO3 or headless CMS and shows step by step how to use Vibe Coding productively, safely and transparently in Web Development – from the fundamentals to advanced workflows.

Vibe coding is a new style of software development: you describe in natural language what an application should do, and AI tools generate the code for it. Instead of writing every line yourself, you steer through descriptions, examples and feedback, test the result and refine it in short loops. This dramatically speeds up prototypes, internal tools and experiments. This vendor-neutral course shows you how to use vibe coding productively with tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot or browser-based app builders.

Knowing the limits matters just as much as speed. Uncontrolled generated code can be unmaintainable, insecure or simply wrong. You will therefore learn to state requirements precisely, safeguard results with tests and reviews, spot typical security flaws and steer the architecture deliberately. Finally, you will map out a clear path from quick prototype to production-ready application, covering version control, deployment, documentation and a clean handover to the team that will run and maintain the solution over the long term.

Web development today covers far more than HTML, CSS and a bit of JavaScript: responsive layouts, accessibility, SEO, performance, forms, content management systems, APIs, hosting and deployment are all part of the job. In small teams and agencies especially, web developers have to cover all of it. AI coding assistants and agents are a huge lever here: they turn designs into layouts, write semantic HTML and modern CSS with grid and container queries, audit pages for accessibility and Core Web Vitals, build CMS templates and automate deployments. Vibe coding also makes rapid prototypes possible that used to take days. This course teaches you to combine that speed with clean structure, maintainability and quality assurance.

The course is delivered live – either online in a virtual classroom or on-site in our training rooms in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart and Kaiserslautern. We can also run it exclusively for your team.

Course outline

Day 1

Module 1 Vibe coding fundamentals
  • What vibe coding is and how it differs from traditional and agentic development
  • The tool landscape: AI editors, coding agents and browser-based app builders
  • Good use cases: prototypes, internal tools, experiments, learning projects
  • Roles: you as product owner, the AI as the one doing the typing
Module 2 From prompt to app
  • Describing requirements as a short spec covering users, features and boundaries
  • Choosing the tech stack and project structure deliberately rather than leaving it to the AI
  • Generating user interfaces from descriptions, sketches and reference examples
  • Adding data, APIs and persistence step by step
Module 3 Iterating and fixing problems
  • Working in small, verifiable steps and committing regularly
  • Feeding error messages, logs and screenshots back to the AI
  • Recognising stuck sessions, rolling back and restarting with fresh context
  • Creating project rules and context files to avoid repeating yourself
Module 4 Securing quality and safety
  • Having the AI generate tests and critically assessing what they actually prove
  • Reviewing generated changes for readability, duplication and needless complexity
  • Spotting typical security flaws: secrets in code, missing validation, exposed endpoints
  • Assessing dependencies, licences and data protection in generated solutions

Day 2

Module 5 From prototype to production
  • Setting criteria for evolving a prototype versus rebuilding it
  • Refactoring, cleaning up architecture and documenting with AI support
  • Setting up version control, CI and deployment for generated applications
  • Planning operations, monitoring and handover to a team or IT
Module 6 Practice lab: Web Development
  • Turning designs into layouts
  • Accessibility audit
  • Performance and Core Web Vitals
  • CMS templates and extensions
  • Technical SEO
  • Forms and integrations
Module 7 Data protection, quality & transfer to daily work
  • Websites are subject to GDPR, ePrivacy rules and, in many cases, accessibility legislation under the European Accessibility Act: generated code must not embed tracking or external resources without consent and must be checked for accessibility. Also watch the licences of fonts, images and code snippets, and keep hosting and CMS credentials out of prompts.
  • Ground rules for safe AI use in your team
  • Checking results: facts, sources, tests and the four-eyes principle
  • Personal action plan for the next 30 days
  • Open questions, outlook and resources for further learning

Practical scenarios from your field

Turning designs into layouts

From screenshots or design files, the assistant produces semantic HTML and modern CSS using grid, flexbox and custom properties, responsive across all breakpoints and consistent with existing stylesheets.

Accessibility audit

The AI checks pages for heading structure, alt text, form labels, keyboard operability and contrast, interprets automated test results and fixes findings against WCAG success criteria.

Performance and Core Web Vitals

Lighthouse reports are analysed, images converted to modern formats with responsive sources, critical CSS extracted, scripts deferred and layout shifts eliminated in a targeted way.

CMS templates and extensions

The agent builds themes, blocks or plugins for WordPress, TYPO3 or a headless CMS, including content models, templates and protection against common security flaws. The system’s coding standards are respected.

Technical SEO

The AI adds structured data, meta tags, hreflang annotations, readable URLs and XML sitemaps, and checks internal linking and canonicals for consistency. Broken redirects and duplicate content are uncovered.

Forms and integrations

Contact and enquiry forms are built with validation, spam protection and server-side processing, alongside integrations with newsletter, CRM or booking systems via their APIs. Errors and timeouts are handled cleanly.

Possible hands-on projects

Static website with a generator

A multilingual company website built with a static site generator, structured data, a sitemap and automated deployment through a CI pipeline.

Accessibility checker

A small tool that automatically audits a list of URLs, sorts findings by severity and generates a readable HTML report.

Appointment booking widget

An embeddable widget that loads available slots from an API, accepts bookings and triggers confirmation emails. The widget is accessible and fully responsive on all devices.

Prerequisites

Basic programming knowledge and some Git experience are helpful; you should be able to read simple code and make sense of error messages. Good knowledge of HTML, CSS and JavaScript plus some experience with Git, a CMS or a front-end framework.

Technical requirements

Your own laptop with an up-to-date browser, Git and an AI coding tool of your choice, such as an AI editor or coding agent with an active account.

Data protection & compliance

Websites are subject to GDPR, ePrivacy rules and, in many cases, accessibility legislation under the European Accessibility Act: generated code must not embed tracking or external resources without consent and must be checked for accessibility. Also watch the licences of fonts, images and code snippets, and keep hosting and CMS credentials out of prompts.

Frequently asked questions

Is vibe coding only suitable for quick prototypes?

Vibe coding shines with prototypes, internal tools and experiments. With the right practices, namely clear specifications, tests, reviews and sound version control, results can also be turned into production-ready applications. The course teaches you to manage that transition deliberately and to recognise early on when rebuilding is the wiser option.

Which tools are used in the course?

The course is vendor-neutral. We work with the main tool categories: AI editors such as Cursor or Windsurf, coding agents such as Claude Code or Codex, and browser-based app builders. You are welcome to use your preferred tool, as the principles of specification, iteration, quality and security apply to all of them.

How should I deal with security risks in generated code?

Generated code often contains typical weaknesses such as hard-coded credentials, missing input validation or overly open interfaces. You learn to check specifically for these patterns, build security requirements into the specification from the start, use automated scanning and require a deliberate human sign-off before every deployment.

Can AI build an entire website for me?

For prototypes and simple sites, yes – and remarkably quickly. Production websites, however, need structure: clean components, verified accessibility, privacy compliance, performance and a well-designed deployment. On the course you learn to move AI-generated output into a maintainable project structure and safeguard it systematically.

Is the course suitable for career changers?

Yes, provided you have a grounding in HTML, CSS and JavaScript. AI explains code and concepts clearly and helps close knowledge gaps quickly. We make sure you understand the generated solutions and can evaluate them independently, rather than simply accepting whatever the assistant produces.

How much does “Vibe Coding for Web Developers” cost?

The course costs a flat €949 plus VAT per participant – whether online or on-site. This includes 2 training day(s) with a live trainer, course materials, a lab environment and a certificate of attendance.

Can I suggest my own date?

Yes. Our suggested dates are just a guide. In the request form you can always describe your preferred date or period in free text – we check availability and confirm within one working day.

Is the course online or on-site?

Both are possible: live online in a virtual classroom or on-site in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart or Kaiserslautern. We can also run the course exclusively for your team.
