The Editor’s Note

I spent 15 years building enterprise software.
Now, I want to teach you how to bypass it.

My name is Anders Lindholm. During my time writing backend infrastructure at companies like Stripe, Lovable, and Klarna, I watched the tech industry build a massive gatekeeping wall around itself.

I took over Vogue and Code because that wall is finally crumbling. Today, you don’t need a computer science degree to build powerful software. You just need the right translation layer. That is what we do here.

Why Vogue
& Code exists.

Our Editorial Premise

Technology education is structurally broken. If you want to learn to build an app today, you are typically forced to choose between two terrible options: expensive computer science bootcamps that drown you in algorithms you will never use, or superficial “tech influencer” videos that skip over the actual logic required to make something work.

Vogue and Code occupies the missing middle. We write for intelligent professionals—designers, marketers, artists, career-switchers—who want to leverage modern technology without becoming full-time software engineers. We believe the future of development belongs to the creative class, not just the math club.

By combining tutorials on Low-Code infrastructure (Bubble, Zapier), beginner-friendly programming (Python), and generative AI, we provide the blueprints you need to turn your ideas into digital reality. We explain the syntax, but more importantly, we explain the system logic.

How we approach tech education.

Zero Gatekeeping.

We don’t use acronyms without defining them. We don’t assume you know what a “Boolean” or an “API endpoint” is. Every tutorial starts from zero. If we can’t explain a concept in plain English, it means we don’t understand it well enough to teach it.

Code is a Tool, Not a Religion.

We are completely language-agnostic. If a No-Code tool solves the problem in 10 minutes, we will teach you the No-Code tool. If it requires custom Python, we will teach you Python. We prioritize the fastest route to a working product.

AI is a Tutor, Not a Crutch.

We aggressively utilize AI agents and coding copilots (like ChatGPT and Cursor) in our workflows. However, we teach you how to read and audit the code the AI generates, rather than blindly copying and pasting it into production.

A Note on our Heritage & Transparency.

The Vogue and Code domain has a proud history. It was originally established by April Speight—a former luxury fashion professional turned Microsoft developer—as a platform to champion diversity in STEM and help underrepresented groups transition into the tech industry.

We acquired this domain to continue the core spirit of that mission: making coding, AI, and technology approachable and relatable for non-traditional tech entrants. However, we believe in absolute editorial transparency.

Vogue and Code now operates under fully independent ownership. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, nor claim successorship to its original founder or her past/present employers. We maintain total editorial independence. We do not accept paid reviews from software vendors, nor do we run sponsored content masquerading as tutorials.

Stuck on a build?

Our editorial calendar is driven by our readers. If you are struggling with a specific Python library, a Webflow integration, or an AI prompt structure, let us know. We frequently turn reader questions into full-length tutorials.

Pitching a tool?

We test new Low-Code and AI tools constantly. You are welcome to pitch your platform to the editorial desk. However, please note that a briefing is not a transaction. We do not accept payment in exchange for positive platform reviews.
