Ship a realAI app in4 hours.
One Saturday. One live workshop. You follow along, build in real time, and leave with a deployed, working AI-powered product — yours to keep.
Limited to 100 builders per session
Trusted by founders, operators, and builders.
Most workshops teach concepts.This one makes you ship.
- The usual experience:
- 3-hour Zoom. 90 slides.
- A GitHub repo you'll never open again.
- Notes that made sense at the time.
- Builder's Weekend:
- 4 hours of live, guided building.
- A real deployed product at the end.
- Code you understand because you wrote it.
- A workflow you'll use every week after.
From blank page to live URL — in one session.
You'll start with nothing. No starter template, no pre-built shortcuts. By the end, you'll have a modern AI-powered web app with a real frontend, connected backend, an agentic workflow, and a live deployment URL — ready to share, extend, or ship.
Landing Page / App UI
Modern, responsive, component-based frontend
Backend + API Layer
Connected logic, database-ready, integration-friendly
AI / Agent Feature
A practical AI-powered function built into your app
Live Deployment
Your app, live on the internet, with a real URL
+ GitHub repo, clean file structure, and deployment guide included
Four hours. Four phases. One working product.
DESIGN + PRODUCT STRUCTURE
Define the idea. Map the user flow. Structure the pages. Set the build direction so you never stall mid-session.
Outcome: A clear product blueprint and component map.
FRONTEND BUILD
Build the UI fast — modern stack, reusable components, responsive from the start. We don't pixel-push, we ship.
Outcome: A complete, working frontend.
BACKEND + AI INTEGRATION
Connect the logic. Wire the APIs. Build a real AI-powered feature — not a demo prompt, but something functional.
Outcome: A full-stack app with AI capability.
GITHUB + DEPLOYMENT
Clean the repo. Prepare for production. Deploy live. This is where most builders get stuck. Not today.
Outcome: A live URL and a GitHub repo you understand.
You won't just leave with a project. You'll leave with a process.
You understand the full stack
Not at a surface level — you built each layer yourself, so you know how it connects and how to extend it.
You have a reusable build workflow
The sequence Tony uses to ship fast becomes the sequence you use from now on.
You stop waiting to feel "ready"
Readiness is a myth. Builder's Weekend proves you already have what it takes.
You have something real to show
A live URL. A GitHub repo. A product. Not a screenshot of a tutorial. An actual thing.
One price. Everything you need.

Seyi A, Founder of Brag Agency
Built for builders who are done watching from the sidelines.
→ This is for you if...
- You've been in tutorial hell for months
- You have an idea but haven't shipped it
- You're a founder who wants to understand your stack
- You're a developer who wants to build faster with AI
- You want a repeatable workflow, not just a one-time build
- You've shipped before but want to go faster
✗ This is not for you if...
- You want a lecture-heavy certification course
- You're looking for a shortcut that skips understanding
- You need enterprise-grade training with SLAs
- You aren't willing to build in real time
Tony Mak
Founder, PracticaLabs
Tony has built AI-powered products for startups, SMBs, and solo founders across multiple industries. He's not an educator who stopped building — he ships weekly, breaks things publicly, and has the scar tissue to prove it. Builder's Weekend is the workshop he wished existed when he was stuck between tutorials and production.
- Founder of PracticaLabs
- Built 8+ AI-powered products shipped to market
- Helped 10+ founders go from idea to live product
- Builder-in-public at @practicalabshq
"I don't teach you to build — I build with you. That's the only way it actually sticks."
Real builders. Real results.
“Tony helped us design, build, and deploy a complete automation training program from the ground up. What impressed me most was the speed and clarity of the process. We didn't just talk about ideas — we built a real course with structure, systems, and deployment that continues to evolve.”
Jenni Gaddis
CEO, Road To QA
“PracticaLabs redesigned and rebuilt our company platform with a level of precision and professionalism that made a huge difference for our product. Tony helped translate our vision into a clean, functional system that we could confidently launch and scale.”
Kay Ajewole
Founder, CNDRO
“Tony has been instrumental in helping us build multiple products and assemble a strong engineering team. His ability to think both as a builder and as a CTO helped us move faster, make better technical decisions, and execute on ideas that would have otherwise taken much longer.”
