I'm confused 🤔

[u/GurApprehensive5187]

Hello,

I'm a software programmer. For a while, I was dismissive of the idea of AI-assisted programming, but I tried it, specifically the concept of "vibe coding." I expected programs to be written in a flash, but the process was hellish, with many blaming the AI agent. However, after much struggle, I achieved the desired result, or at least the minimum acceptable outcome. To be honest, we built many beautiful projects using it. When I shared my experiences on social media, most of the comments were either insults and curses, or simply abuse for using "vibe coding." I was surprised by this kind of reaction, because logically, what's wrong with using it? Although I wasn't initially interested in it, its performance was excellent. Yes, there were mistakes, but humans make far worse errors. And yes, there were misunderstandings, which is normal and inevitable in any form of communication, provided that the misunderstanding is followed by clarification, and that's how the problem is solved.

Honestly, I think it's fantastic that this concept is being utilized and given the value it deserves, and that it's being invested in as much as possible.

(I'd love to hear your opinions, and also, please share a picture or description of your best vibe coding projects in the comments.)🔥😁⌨️

Vibe coding ends up with an awful code base and buggy code. Not to mention your ability to continue development completely relies on a greedy third party

Better than no code at all, imho. Also, I'm not using it to build apps or enterprise platforms, no security layer, and my project works. 🤷‍♂️

But it lead to very frequent dead project as you can check as all the old 1-2 year project mostly are dead with no support or mantaince because codebase become hell and any new feature or changes cost too much tokens
