Vibe Coding for Beginners:
Create Interactive Visuals, Mini Apps, and Learning Tools with Ai
A Library 2.0 / Learning Revolution Masterclass with Nicole Hennig
OVERVIEW:
This session is designed for information professionals who want to create dynamic digital experiences—without needing a coding background.
Learn how to turn library statistics and information literacy content into beautiful, accessible interactives. We’ll demonstrate how these can be created using natural-language prompts in a few beginner-friendly “vibe-coding” tools. We’ll walk through how these tools work, what they’re good at (and not so good at), and how to iterate from a rough draft to something you can actually use.
You’ll see examples of how to create:
- Engaging educational quizzes and activities
- Mini-sites or simple web pages for visualizing library data
- Interactive graphics to help explain complex topics
Demos may include a mix of browser-based, natural-language “build it for me” tools and AI-assisted design environments. You’ll leave with concrete examples and ideas you can adapt for your own library context.
LEARNING AGENDA:
- What we mean by “vibe coding” (and the approach we’ll use)
- Practical limitations to understand up front
- Examples of vibe-coded quizzes and learning games (and how they were made)
- Examples of visual data displays (and how they were made)
- Ways to share interactives: hosted on the sites where they were created, or embedded in your website or libguides.
- Tool categories and recommendations
- Capabilities of free vs. paid accounts
- Recommended resources for learning more
