/ The program · 8 weeks

Eight weeks. One real site. Built in public, week by week.

This isn't a video library you watch alone. It's a working program with one live class a week, capped enrollment, and a deliverable every week — the kind of work that's actually visible online after.

/ Week by week

What you actually do — ships every week.

Each week has one live class, an implementation block, and a concrete thing that has to be shipped before the next class. The home page shows the rough shape. This is the full breakdown.

/ Common questions

The questions we get the most — before you join the waitlist.

Can I keep my full-time job during the program?

Most participants do. The 20 hrs/week is real, but it's flexible outside of the one live class.

What if I miss a live class?

Every live session is recorded and posted same day, with the implementation work attached.

Do I need a business idea before I start?

No. Week 1 is direction. Many participants pick their topic during the first week — that's by design.

What software or subscriptions are required?

A domain (~$15/yr) and hosting (~$10–25/mo). Everything else we teach has a free or free-tier path.
