You Know the Basics. Now Build Something Real.

YoungDevs is a 7-week program where high schoolers build and launch a new project every single week. Web apps, developer tools, or data science projects, it’s all about learning by doing, shipping fast, and building confidence through real results.

How It Works

Build From Day One

No tutorials, no fake projects. Every week you’ll solve a real problem by building and launching something from scratch.

Problem-First Learning

Every project starts with a real-world problem — not a tutorial. We teach you how to think like a builder, find your own solutions, and turn vague prompts into working products.

Live, Hands-On Sessions

Each week includes quick lessons and a live workshop where we build in front of you — and help you build your own project.

1:1 Mentor Calls

You will get a 1:1 call with a mentor every week to get personalized feedback, guidance, and support on your projects.

Leaderboard

Each week we will rank students based on the project quality and real metrics, don't worry we will keep things fun.

Final Launch Project

In the last 2 weeks, you’ll build your biggest project yet with a team — and launch it publicly (will help you to make an impact,too).

Our Curriculum

Build and ship working full stack tools using modern web technologies like React, Express, and Supabase.
