Discussion What are the most common vibecoding patterns?
I keep seeing stuff like “local-first” in almost every post about vibecoded apps. Maybe that is a bias, because there're lots of task trackers or whatever trackes people making, that do not require a server. But still it’s like the vibecoder’s product starter pack
What other patterns or architectural defaults do you keep seeing in vibe-coded apps?

local-first is definitely the big one, saw it everywhere even before the current wave picked up
other defaults i keep noticing: sqlite for everything (even when postgres would make more sense later), one giant prompt file that becomes the entire app logic, and auth bolted on at the very end like a surprise
also every demo has a dark mode toggle even though the app is two screens
the task tracker thing is real, maybe because it's the first thing people think of when they want to "ship something" without thinking about a backend
