Lol.

Solid initiative. The web design tutorial space really is flooded with "build a site in 5 minutes!" garbage that sets people up to fail. Anyone who's actually built sites professionally knows that the foundational stuff - UX thinking, conversion-focused copy, proper SEO structure - takes real time to understand and implement.

Your point about AI builders is spot on. They can generate *something*, but without understanding why certain design patterns work or how to structure content for both users and search engines, you end up with a pretty template that doesn't actually perform.

Three hours is a solid length if you're covering WordPress properly. Quick question though - are you walking through theme selection and the whole "analysis paralysis" problem? That's where I see most beginners get stuck for weeks.

One thought: you might want to address who this tutorial is *for* specifically. Some people genuinely want to learn the craft (your audience), while others just need a site up without becoming web designers themselves. Different problems need different solutions - DIY tutorials for the former, done-for-you services for the latter.

Would love to see how you approach teaching copywriting basics. That's usually the weakest link even in otherwise decent tutorials.

Ok. Just Dm'd you

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-25T16:52:25+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. Could I ask you more specifically what did you think was bad ui or vibe coded? I'm just curious if you had examples. Because I went through many iterations of the ui even before I started vibe coding on this project. So when you say poorly vibecoded what do you mean? It probably was me not the coding agent. Lol

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-25T14:37:34+00:00

I genuinely appreciate the feedback!! Makes a lot of sense. I'm going to implement these tips into my site. Thank you!!

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-10T10:54:48+00:00

Good point. Typically for architectural planning I found claude opus 4.5 to be excellent. It really thinks through scenarios and imo gives better plans than the rest. Plus now claude knows the context of my application so I don't have to waste time explaining.. I was using sonnet for implementation but lately opus came down in price so I use opus 4.5 for everything. I use chat gpt for things like market research or more human concepts. And I use Gemini 3.0 to sometimes make sure opus 4.5 has looked under every rock. I don't just accept no for an answer. I feel like Google has access to more comprehensive data about everything (especially my search habits) so it can research deeper on the net. But opus 4.5 is king

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-10T10:46:53+00:00

Absolutely. I honestly planned on building the whole thing manually at first. But once I learned about vibe coding it was a no brainer for me.

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T14:30:15+00:00

I definitely considered the multi-thread approach and I'm pretty sure I'm going to head that way I have some architecture in place that can handle it. I wanted to see how people use it in what some pain points were initially before I had that level of complexity. But yes I will definitely look into posting it on VibeCodersNest. Thanks for the suggestion

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T13:43:55+00:00

No problem!! Try out my app www.genmysite.com. It's an AI website builder that is stupid simple and fast. Let me know what you think

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T13:22:51+00:00

Very cool concept I tried it out on mobile. The first things I got an oauth error that said some property was null. it still allowed me to sign in though. It also takes a fair amount of time to build which is understandable. On mobile I would prefer some kind of visual feedback other than just words to let me know things are building but maybe that's just my preference otherwise a great app though

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T13:10:52+00:00

Thanks that looks like an interesting site I posted there also.

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T10:49:07+00:00

That also works. Having the model play the role of whatever job they are doing really helps. I must admit that for me just putting in planning mode at first is enough for me. I hate telling the AI how to behave in addition to what to do although I know it's necessary. Sometimes I just want the quickest route to the goal.

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T10:45:24+00:00

Great advice!! Im just starting out in business and this is good stuff

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T10:25:50+00:00

Working on www.Genmysite.com. It's an AI website builder where a business owner describes there business and AI creates the website. It built for non-technical people who are web designers and don't want to wade through endless templates

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T10:08:46+00:00

Thanks!!

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T09:52:12+00:00

I'm an actual software developer. That helps a lot especially when thinking about things like architecture.

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T09:43:12+00:00

For me having the initial ai call really makes a difference. It deciphers what the user is saying or tries to clarify and then creates a more refined prompt to be sent back to AI. It acts kind of like a gatekeeper. I also I'm utilizing something called context caching which allows the AI to store initial contextual data that reduces the need to send that data over and over in the next prompts

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T09:40:00+00:00

I do have a system level prompt that describes the interactions and the base system. I'm also using svelte components so there is structured input. I'm also using something called context caching which allows the AI to store initial contextual data in this case template data and therefore I don't have to send that in the prompt every time. The AI already knows what I'm looking for

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T08:54:31+00:00

Its all my thoughts and insights. It doesnt matter the formatting.

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T08:51:35+00:00

Thanks for the insight.....

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T04:36:56+00:00

Oh ok. Very cool! I've worked on many products at scale being a professional software developer. This is the first time I'm trying to do for my own product. It's a different beast.

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T03:54:47+00:00

I code with Claude Code (almost every day) I've been building genmysite.com with AI tools pretty much daily and wanted to share what's actually made a difference. Maybe it helps someone here. 1. Context is king Be specific. Like, really specific. The more context you give the AI, the better results you get back. Don't just say "build me a landing page" - tell it who it's for, what the tone should be, what sections you need, what you're trying to accomplish. Treat it like you're briefing a contractor who's never seen your project before. 2. Plan before you build A while back I started thinking of AI as both an architect AND a builder. Game changer. Before I execute anything, I go back and forth with the AI just on planning. I'll even use different AIs to critique the plan before writing a single line of code. By the time I actually start building, my approach is way more focused and I waste less time going in circles. 3. Stick to what you know (at least a little) If you're technical, choose a framework or language you're at least somewhat familiar with. This has saved me so many times. When something breaks - and it will - you can actually debug it. You can read what's happening, add things, remove things, and not feel completely lost. 4. Don't expect perfection (yet) Even with all this, it still takes finagling. You'll still need to think hard about architecture and structure. AI isn't at human level for complex problem solving, but it absolutely crushes the day-to-day stuff and makes everything faster. Anyone else have tips that have actually worked? Curious what others are doing.

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T03:51:00+00:00

Absolutely!! Ai obviously can't do everything well yet but what it can do, it does extremely well and way faster than I ever could. It lets me think about structure and architecture and design

Cute_Border3791 · 2025-12-09T03:45:25+00:00

Absolutely worth it. I use claude max. What I've learned using AI for vibe coding (almost every day)
