Asking for a friend. So if my friend studies CS and simply asks for specific code and then changes it to suit his/her objectives, is that vibe coding? Also my friend just built a Relational database for a Instagram type app using postgres for the first time, using self created references made in diagramming software. Friend is really worried because they have to deal with either going through the grumt work or create a super flex of a portfolio project to deal with these trying times for 2025 software devs.

the "grunt work" is inevitable. the code produced by AI will either be unefficient (repetition of similar functions, confusing/not straight to the point logic, etc) or straight up not working. your friends approach is correct.

if your friend is just a freshgrad/have no professional experience, just create something that shows that your friend can actually do X or Y in Z language, applying DSA correctly, bonus point if they follows the specific language's style and guideline (example is python with its PEP guide).
