Introduction
The traditional walls dividing tech departments are crumbling. In the modern ecosystem, the era of “that’s not my job” is officially over. Welcome to Build with AI Wrocław, an intensive, 6-day marathon designed to dissolve legacy silos and evolve specialized UI/UX Designers, Developers, and DevOps Engineers into holistic, cross-functional Product Creators.
Hosted at the Uniwersytet Ekonomiczny we Wrocławiu from June 29th to July 4th, 2026, this hands-on workshop leverages Artificial Intelligence not just as a code assistant, but as the ultimate collaborative bridge.
The 6-Day Full-Cycle Journey
Every participant, regardless of their native background, dives deep into every single breath of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC):DAY 1 - 29.06Product Design, Scope & MVP
Day 1 of the GDG workshops is where the work begins - and where every team's product takes shape.
Before anyone writes a line of code, we start with the question that decides whether a product is worth building: who is this for, and what problem does it actually solve?
Over one day, you'll move from a blank page to a scoped MVP you'll keep building all week:
Define a real user and a real problem
Map the core flow of your product
Slice it down to what's actually shippable
Learn where AI helps and where it hurts
Determine the scope for MVP
You'll leave with a defined product, ready for Day 2.
This is the foundation the rest of the week is built on.
Come curious.Schedule:4:00 PM
The use of AI should not be a goal in itself. During the workshop, I will show when AI truly creates value for users and businesses, and when it leads to products that look impressive in presentations but fail to solve any meaningful problem.
4:55 PM Break
5:00 PM
From idea to product – understanding the IT project lifecycle. An introduction to Design Thinking and the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC): why the order of steps matters and what happens when teams skip the Discovery phase.
5:15 PM
Who is your user? Building a persona as the foundation for every product decision. How personas help teams avoid building features that nobody actually needs.
5:30 PM Break
5:35 PM
Workshop exercise: Problem Statement Canvas + Persona for your product. Teams define their target user and formulate a one-sentence problem statement, ready for validation with a mentor.
6:35 PM
BPMN for the impatient – how to visualize a business process before designing a solution.
6:50 PM
Event Storming.
7:05 PM Break
7:20 PM
Modeling your product’s process using the selected method (BPMN or Event Storming). Teams map the workflow of their solution.
8:10 PM
Time to create tasks – building a Kanban board. How to translate the developed artifacts (persona, problem statement, process diagram) into concrete tickets ready for implementation.
8:40 PM
Q&A Session.9:00 PM
Workshop Closing.Trainers: Dawid Perdek, Natalia Kierczuk, Artur Suchwalko DAY 2 - 30.06
Day 2 is where ideas start becoming interfaces - and interfaces start becoming products.
Now that every team has defined their user, problem, and MVP scope, it's time to turn product thinking into something tangible.
We'll explore how modern teams design and build products in a world where AI can generate interfaces, understand design systems, and accelerate implementation. But just like on Day 1, the focus isn't on using AI for its own sake - it's on using it to build better products, faster.
Over one day, you'll:
• Learn the fundamentals of digital accessibility and why inclusive design matters
• Understand how AI can help create and maintain design systems
• Build or extend a design system that can scale with your product
• Connect design decisions directly to implementation through AI-powered workflows
• Transform your design system into the first working version of your product
By the end of the day, you'll have a visual foundation, a reusable design system, and the first version of a product that reflects the decisions you've made so far.
This is where strategy becomes design, and design becomes software.
Come ready to build.Schedule:
4:00 PM
What is accessibility and why does it matter? This session provides an introduction to digital accessibility, explaining its role in creating inclusive digital products and why it should be considered from the very beginning of the product development process. Designed for anyone who wants to incorporate accessibility into their projects but isn't sure where to start.
4:55 PM Break
5:00 PM
AI-Native Design Systems: Building Products With and Without a Designer. Modern product teams often operate in very different environments: some work without dedicated design support, while others rely on mature design systems maintained by specialized design teams.
In this session, we'll explore how AI can support both scenarios. We'll begin by showing how developers can generate a functional design system from scratch using Antigravity and bring it into Figma through AI-powered workflows. Then we'll examine how AI can work with existing design systems, understanding design tokens, styles, and component anatomy to generate interfaces that remain consistent with the original design intent.
This practical session focuses on real-world workflows, collaboration between design and engineering, and delivering products faster without sacrificing quality or consistency.
7:05 PM Break
7:20 PM
From Design System to Working Product. A design system only proves its value when it helps build a real product. In this closing session, we'll take the design system created earlier or one provided by an external design team and transform it into the first working version of a product.
We'll explore how a coding agent can treat the design system as a source of truth rather than a static reference. Using Antigravity together with MCP servers, we'll connect the agent directly to design tokens, styles, and component anatomy, allowing generated code to inherit design decisions automatically. The session will cover setting up the MCP connection, defining tasks for the agent, and iterating toward outputs that are both consistent and production-ready.
8:40 PM
Q&A Session.
9:00 PM
Workshop Closing.Trainers: Kinga Witko, Witold Iglewski, Przemyslaw Nowak DAYS 3&4 - 01.07-02.07
TBADAY 5 - 03.07Deployment, Scale & Optimization
Day 5 of the GDG workshops is where your product crosses the finish line - and where your week of hard work goes live.
Before we wrap up, we tackle the final, crucial milestone that turns a local project into a real-world application: how do we launch efficiently, and how do we know it's actually working? Over this final day, you will take your developed MVP and push it into production:
Deploy to production using the fastest, most frictionless path for both frontend and backend.
Build an agentic solver using Bielik, Gemma, and Cloud Run to automate complex problem-solving.
Monitor system health by diving into live logs and real-time performance analysis.
Optimize your AI pipeline by seeing where local SLMs and cloud LLMs handle the heavy lifting.
You will leave with a fully functional, deployed product, completely live and ready for the real world.
This is the finish line your entire week has been building toward. Come ready to launch.
Trainers: Marek Mysior, Jacek Kubiak, Mokshazn
Day 6 | The Grand Hackathon - 04.07
The ultimate test of collective AI superpowers. Cross-functional teams will collaborate to build and launch a real product from scratch.
Important Notice
Due to the intensive, hands-on nature of this workshop, seats are strictly limited to ensure high-quality mentorship for every team.
Submitting registration form does not guarantee a seat. Registrations will be verified manually.What You’ll Walk Away With
This marathon is structured for active tech professionals Software Engineers, UI/UX Designers, DevOps Specialists, and Product Architects who understand the fundamentals of the SDLC. By trading static handoffs for rapid, AI-driven prototyping, you will gain:
Cross-Role Empathy: A genuine, hands-on understanding of your teammates' workflow friction.
High-Velocity Synergy: Mastery in navigating agile, multi-disciplinary squads.
The Big Picture Perspective: The ability to see how a single UI change or backend logic shift ripples through an entire live product.
Bring your laptop, install the required SDKs, and prepare to build smarter. Secure your spot and architect the future of tech.
