SUMMARY:Jacksonville Public Libraries Free Family AI + Vibe Coding Class 
LOCATION:8375 Maxville Blvd, Jacksonville, FL 32234
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Collins Dictionary named “vibe coding” the 2025 Word of the Year. It means 
 using plain English to guide AI into helping build apps, games, websites, a
 nd tools.\n\nCollins Dictionary named “vibe coding” the 2025 Word of the Ye
 ar. The simple version: vibe coding means describing what you want to build
  in plain English, letting AI help create a first version, then testing, de
 bugging, and improving it until it works.\n\nI’m Fred Marks, founder of Jac
 ksonville’s vibe coding meetup community and a Bolles alum, Class of 2000. 
 I also am teaching vibe coding summer camp at The Bolles School. This free 
 library class is independent and not affiliated with The Bolles School or T
 he Bolles School summer camp. \n\nI’m offering a FREE 90-minute introductio
 n to Vibe Coding class at Jacksonville public libraries for parents/guardia
 ns and kids ages 10–17.\n\nThis is not just a talk about AI. We are going t
 o actually vibe code something together.\nWe’ll start with a simple idea, t
 urn it into a clear prompt, have AI create a first version, test what works
 , fix what breaks, and improve it as a group!\n\nThat is the real skill: le
 arning how to think clearly, explain an idea, question what AI gives back, 
 and keep improving until something works.\n\nKids who like games, apps, web
 sites, writing, art, music, sports, or business ideas will see how AI can h
 elp turn an idea in their head into something real.\n\nNo AI or coding expe
 rience needed. A smartphone is required, or laptop (not necessary, but you 
 are welcome to bring).  We will use the library's wifi, and will use Google
 's FREE Vibe Coding platform, AI Studio.\n\nThis is not a drop-off class. A
  parent or guardian must stay for the full class.\n\nSpace is limited to ab
 out 40 total people, including adults and kids.\n\nSign up today and join t
 he fun learning how to Vibe Code with AI!
