Let me be direct with you.
AI can now write code. That changes everything for accounting firms.
You don't need to become a developer. You don't need to hire one. You just need to know how to describe what you want clearly — and follow a structured process.
That's what this guide gives you. Not theory. Not hype. Just a clear, practical walkthrough of how to go from "I have an idea for a tool" to "I just built it."
Whether it's a financial dashboard, a tax planning calculator, or an internal tool for your team — if you can describe it, you can build it.
Six sections. Zero fluff.
A practical guide you can read in one sitting — or skip to the section you need.

- You're an accountant or bookkeeper who's heard about vibe coding but isn't sure where to start

A Chartered Accountant who builds apps — and can't write code.
Mark Wickersham has spent over 35 years in the accounting profession — running a firm, advising others, and training thousands of accounting firm owners around the world.
Over the past two years, his focus has expanded into AI. He now builds working apps using vibe coding — financial tools, client advisory apps, business dashboards — all without writing a single line of code.
This guide is built on that real-world experience — from a Chartered Accountant who discovered that the tools have finally caught up with the ideas.
