Why Vibe Coding Is the Most Important Skill of 2026

And how to perfect this skill (even with no experience)

There are a few moments in history where massive disruption happens. This disruption leads to insane opportunity.

1995 → The internet

2007 → The iPhone

2023 → AI boom

Each one of these moments created trillion-dollar opportunities.
Each time, the people who moved fastest — and understood the new tools earliest — won big.

In 1995, technical founders like Bezos and Elon could spin up websites and ride the internet wave into billion-dollar companies.

In 2007, the iPhone unlocked mobile apps. Developers who saw the shift early made millions building simple tools that dominated the App Store.

But the AI boom is different.
This is the first democratized disruption.

There’s no barrier to entry.
You don’t need to know how to code.
You don’t need a CS degree.
You don’t need a team of engineers.

You just need to know how to direct AI.

Anyone - literally anyone - can build complex, powerful products if they know how to work with tools like Claude Code.

Never in history has there been a moment like this.

A year ago, I decided to test how far this could go.

I used Cursor and Claude Code to build and launch an app myself called Creator Buddy.

I wrote zero lines of code.
I built the entire thing by myself.
And today, that app does over $300,000/year.

That experience changed my entire worldview.

Claude Code is the single most powerful piece of software I’ve ever used.
It gives you infinite creative ability - and removes all the technical barriers.

This is why I believe 2026 is the year vibe coding explodes:

• The tools keep getting easier

• The speed of building keeps getting faster

• The gap between “idea” and “app” keeps shrinking

• And more people are going to build businesses with AI than any time in history

Vibe Coding (using AI to build apps without writing code) is, in my opinion, the single most valuable skill you can learn right now.

It changed my life.
And I think it will change yours.

That’s why this Black Friday - Friday, November 28th - I’m launching the Vibe Coding Academy.

It’s part community, part masterclass.

Inside, you’ll get the full end-to-end Claude Code curriculum I personally use.
You’ll go from 0 technical experience → fully shipped AI app, live on the internet.

You’ll also have a community of builders to interact with every day.
I’ll be running weekly office hours where you can ask questions, troubleshoot your build, or show off what you’ve created.

Nothing else like this exists online.
And I believe it’s going to transform a lot of people’s lives.

It opens Friday.
But if you want first access, join the waitlist here.

Whether you’ve never touched AI in your life or you’re already deep into Claude Code, you will have a TON to learn inside the Academy.

And yes - I personally guarantee you’ll ship an app in 28 days or your money back.

We are living through the most exciting moment in tech history, and I can’t wait to share everything I’ve learned with you.

Sign up for the Vibe Coding Academy waitlist below - and I’ll see you Friday.
