What we’re about
Dim Sum Labs is a group of Designers, Programmers, Artists, Creators, Innovators, Visionaries, Techies, Entrepreneurs, Inventors, Engineers, Funders and Starters and those curious and inquiring minds who wish share ideas and collaborate to create.
We meet every Tuesday night from 7pm to late at Dim Sum Labs, Sheung Wan.
We also hold a wide variety of hands-on and theoretical workshops.
We also aspire to be artisans, moving beyond the realm of the theoretical to physically implement our ideas.
We believe that Dim Sum Labs will be defined by both the people that we attract, as well as by the workshops and projects that we create.

Vibe Coding for Profit: Build an AI-Powered E-Commerce App, Live (Workshop)
How do you turn your ideas into real, working products — even if you can’t code?
Join us for a hands-on workshop where we’ll build a full-stack AI-powered e-commerce app from scratch, combining AI coding tools (Cursor) with a no-code backend (Momen).
You’ll see how to:
- Design a visual database and backend workflows without writing code
- Connect AI agents that enhance user experience and automate tasks
- Integrate payments, permissions, and real-time data flows
- Use Cursor to quickly build and iterate your front end
- Deploy a live, monetizable web app — in just 2 hours
It’s a live build, guided by Yaokai Jiang, Founder & CEO of Momen.app. Expect an interactive, fast-paced, and highly practical session that bridges "vibe coding" and real-world business applications.
Who it’s for:
- Non-technical startup founders
- Indie makers, and
- Anyone exploring AI tools to build a real online presence — beyond just a demo or prototype.
To get the most out of the workshop, make sure you bring your own laptop. If possible, sign up for a Momen account at momen.app, and download Cursor and sign up for a Cursor account at cursor.com.
Number of attendee is limited, sign up before we run out of space!
