He Built 50 Apps in 50 Weeks Without Knowing How to Code | Lazar Jovanovic

What if you could turn an idea into a working app without knowing how to code?

And what if the biggest thing holding you back wasn't your ability, but what you believed was possible?

In this episode of Look At You Now, Craig Leslie sits down with Lazar, Professional Vibecoding Engineer at Lovable, to explore how artificial intelligence is changing who gets to build, create and solve problems.

Lazar had never written code before discovering Lovable. Today, he works at the company helping turn ideas into real products using AI. He even challenged himself to build 50 apps in 50 weeks, proving that you don't necessarily need a traditional technical background to bring your ideas to life.

But our conversation goes beyond AI and building apps.

We explore why not knowing something can sometimes be an advantage, how curiosity and persistence help us overcome limitations, and why the ability to understand and communicate a problem could become one of the most valuable skills of the future.

Lazar also shares practical advice for anyone wanting to start building with AI, why finding customers matters just as much as creating a product, and how embracing change can open doors we might never have imagined.

In this conversation, we explore:

• What Lovable and vibe coding actually are, explained simply.
• How Lazar went from business operations to becoming a Professional Vibecoding Engineer.
• Why having no coding experience helped him think differently.
• How he successfully built 50 apps in 50 weeks.
• Why understanding and communicating problems is becoming an increasingly valuable skill.
• Practical advice for turning an idea into a working app using AI.
• Why building something is only half the challenge, and finding people who need it matters just as much.
• How AI could transform jobs, entrepreneurship and the future of creativity.
• Why curiosity, persistence and adaptability matter in a rapidly changing world.
• How technology could give us more freedom to spend time doing things we genuinely enjoy.

Whether you're curious about AI, have an idea you've never been able to build, or simply want to understand how technology might change what you're capable of, this conversation offers a fascinating perspective on the opportunities ahead.
