Zero to App in Minutes: Automating Hackathons with Miro AI & MCP

Feb 5, 2026

Learn how to use Miro AI + MCP (Model Context Protocol) to turn visual ideas into a working application in record time. In this video, we walkthrough a complete "Agentic Workflow" designed for hackathons and rapid prototyping.

We start by using Miro AI Workflows (Flows) to transform a simple idea into a comprehensive project brief, user stories, and high-fidelity mobile prototypes. Then, we leverage the Miro MCP server to give an AI agent (Claude Code) full context of our board to generate a production-ready Node.js app automatically.
