670K people watched us vibe code
Imagine being flown across the country to build a full-stack app from scratch in under four hours, where you have to demo what you made in front of a dev influencer, corporate recruiter, and competing engineering teams regardless of if it's finished or a broken mess. Now imagine that it's all being filmed by a full production crew, having to juggle team interviews and makeup touchups between code commits and debugging attempts, all to make a video that's been viewed over 670,000 times!

Peninsula Developer Happy Hour
A social event to discuss and network with other professionals

Peninsula Developers Study Group
New AI tools are dropping every week. Bookmarks are piling up. “To-be-studied” lists are growing faster than we can keep up with. Sound familiar? Peninsula Builders Study Group is a local initiative for students and developers of the Peninsula area who want to stop meaning to learn and start actually doing it—together. There’s no pressure to be an expert, and no bootcamp intensity. Just a consistent habit, a room full of curious people, and the accountability that comes from showing up. How it works: We meet every two weeks on Tuesdays from 6:00–7:30 PM at CNU.
