Teachers keep saying, “I’m not a coder.”Evan Weinberg proves that doesn’t matter.

In the premiere episode of Show Us Your Stack, we break down how Evan built a unit-planning tool using AI — not to replace teaching, but to protect the human parts of the job: the coaching, the feedback, and the relationships.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

✅ The real problem that pushed Evan to build (unit planning chaos + meeting “triage”)

✅ How he uses AI Studio as the simplest “way in” for educators

✅ Why he recommends single-file HTML apps (fast prototyping + built-in version history)

✅ The biggest risk teachers ignore: data + security (CSV uploads, student info, API keys

)✅ A brilliant starter project for beginners: the grouping generator (“Hello World” for teacher tools)

Evan’s message is simple: don’t chase the perfect prompt — start with a problem, ask for an HTML file, and iterate.
