About a month or so ago, during the Build with AI season, Google Developer Groups Johannesburg in South Africa hosted a build-a-thon with a concept I genuinely loved.
The whole concept was structured like a kitchen lab, with a key focus on local small businesses . Small to medium sized businesses dominate Southern Africa, so when I first read and saw the post i could instantly relate.
I loved the idea of turning code into usable business tools and a buildathon where we could be cooking up ideas together.
Different ingredients. Different flavours. Different tools. Immense impact!
I was excited to share the tutorial before the buildathon, but life and timing happened. So instead of letting the project sit in a notebook, I decided to turn it into an article anyone can follow, as they experiment with AI-powered marketing workflows.
