Getting Started with Github and Github Portfolio
About this event
You've been building with AI tools — but do you have a place to show it off?
GitHub isn't just for engineers. It's quietly become one of the most powerful (and free!) ways to showcase your projects, host a portfolio, and level up your credibility as someone who builds with AI — not just talks about it.
Join us for a hands-on session with Melissa Leavenworth as she demystifies GitHub from the ground up and walks you through how she used it to build and deploy her own landing page.
This session covers the basics without the intimidation factor — what GitHub actually is, why it matters as you start your AI journey, and why you should be syncing it with your vibe-coded projects (spoiler: most vibe coding apps make this ridiculously easy). Then Melissa will demo how she built a portfolio landing page using GitHub — live — so you can see the full process in action.
About Our Speaker
Melissa Leavenworth is a creative with a background in ecommerce content production and communications. She writes the Substack Levity and has been diving deep into AI tools and vibe coding — building her own portfolio and landing pages using GitHub along the way. She's proof that you don't need a CS degree to start shipping projects and showing your work.
