Vibe Coding meets Vibe Hardware'ing

Come along to the March Coding from Beach meetup for a workshop on how to build your own hardware projects with this assistance of AI coding agents.

In this workshop, we will learn how to use coding agents like Claude Code, Codex and Cursor to help you write programs for the esp32 microcontroller which acts as a brain for your hardware projects.

What you’ll need:

An esp32 device (bring if you have one, else we will provide)
A usb-c cable to connect it to your computer (for power and data)
A charged laptop
Access to a coding agent on your computer like claude code, codex, cursor

What we’ll cover:

Basics about esp32 devices
How to connect them to your computer to program them
How to get your coding agent to see the device
How to prompt your coding agent to build programs for the device
How to transfer programs onto the device
How you can extend the device with peripherals like sensors

Notes:

We know some of you may not have had time to purchase an ESP32 device. No worries — we've just taken delivery of a bunch of them, so we'll have devices available on the night. No need to order one yourself.
Just bring your laptop (charged), a USB-C cable, and access to a coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, etc.).
Please RSVP asap so we can put an ESP32 device aside for you and firm up catering numbers.
