Code Playbook – Pete McPherson

Build & Launch Real Apps Without “Learning to Code”

No Googling & time-wasting.

Just follow the playbook and skip to the fun part (seeing amazing products built by YOU, and making money of course).

In this program, you’ll learn to:

• Learn just enough code to be dangerous – at a 7th-grade level, no tech jargon overwhelm
• Vibe-code with tools like Cursor, Claude Code, ChatGPT, etc
• Avoid my dumb mistakes (and save time, stress, and money)
• Launch a real, sellable app from scratch!

You don’t need to be techy.

You need a system, and somebody to show you what’s what.

Build something real. Launch fast.
