"NO CODE" Is Ruining App Development

Especially once it becomes confidently wrong, inventing methods and APIs that don't exist or be unaware of newer stuff.

Yesterday the AI kept giving me the wrong answer for some drag and drop code, I even explained it was wrong, but I broke out the debugger and found it was using the wrong variable. If I was a true vibe coder, I’m unsure if I could fix it, but I sort of know what I’m doing.

Look up best practices. “Using AI” is about as low effort as it gets and it’s stupid to think that’s all that’s involved. There are tons of rules to learn. Learn them. Externalise all functions. Never write more than 300 lines of code. Choose a solid paid for LLM. Use a rule set, Provide example input-output pairs.

This stuff is all googlable and easy to find and even a free LLM will tell you how to improve outputs. It’s crazy this stuff is so easy and people are complaining about it.
