The method
Your build, station by station
Seven short stations from web literacy to shared proof. Learn the parts first, then let AI help you build.
- 1Web basicsWhat a page is made of
- 2ChatGPT briefAnswer a few questions
- 3Mini briefGoal, taste, scope
- 4V0 promptsThree, ready to paste
- 5BuildFirst draft in V0
- 6ReviewCheck it, fix one thing
- 7Share proofShow it, explain it
Zero to Website
The no-install browser lane for people who have never built a website before.
What this is
Zero to Website is the simplest first build in the Academy. Everything happens in the browser. You answer a few questions in ChatGPT, ChatGPT writes one clear build prompt, V0 turns it into a real page, you fix one issue, and you leave with proof you can explain.
ChatGPT interview answers -> V0-ready website prompt -> V0 preview or screenshot -> 60-second explanationUse this lane when you are totally new, cannot access Antigravity, cannot install local tools, or just want the fastest browser-only first-website proof.
Why it matters
Most beginners either freeze in front of a blank page or let AI generate a generic site they cannot explain. This lane avoids both. ChatGPT plans around your own goal and taste, V0 builds, and you stay the person who reviews and explains the result.
No Antigravity, Node, Git, GitHub, Vercel, or local IDE is required here. If you later want to own the code and set up a local project, move on to Vibe 101.
What to do
Know your finish line
You finish when you can show proof and explain it. Aim as high as your time allows.
| Level | Proof |
|---|---|
| Minimum | V0 preview or screenshot plus a 60-second explanation |
| Good | Minimum proof plus one visible fix after review |
| Strong | A V0 published link, if your account and credits allow |

Common mistakes
- Trying to master web development in one session instead of building one small page.
- Over-scoping the first site with many pages, logins, dashboards, or fake data.
- Judging the result by the code instead of the preview.
- Polishing forever and leaving with no proof and no explanation.
