Are you keen on creating your own digital marketplace or social media app in just five afternoons? Join Daniel Nylander, entrepreneur and SSE alum, for a live code-along bootcamp where you will build a fully working web app from scratch. No prior experience needed! Please follow the link below to apply for the bootcamp.

Start time: 2025-11-17 at 15:15

End time: 2025-11-21 at 17:30

Location: Stockholm School of Economics. Application required.

This bootcamp uses the "low code” approach - giving you more control than AI/vibe coding and a faster build process than traditional code stacks.

Gain valuable professional skills, understand the pros and cons of coding approaches, and build your own fully functioning product. All in 5 days. And as a participant - your vote decides what we build!

Participants are limited to 15. Make sure to submit your application no later than October 15.

The bootcamp is led by Daniel Nylander who is an SSE and SSE Business Lab alum. Daniel is currently developing the tech/fitness startup ORKAI.

Structure of mini-bootcamp:

Day 1: Intro to Low Code, setting up, and starting the build.
Day 2: Phase 1 building, frontend focus (structuring, styles, responsiveness, and more).
Day 3: Phase 2 building, backend focus (sending, receiving, and modifying stored data).
Day 4: Vote on the next set of features we implement! The build will change based on what areas the participants want to dive deeper into at this stage. Build continues with combined frontend/backend focus.
Day 5: Finalizing the build. Ending with take-aways, and learnings on how to apply what we’ve learned to other professional scenarios and ventures.

A fika will be provided during each session.
