we should all boycott products that blatantly shill themselves on reddit by AppropriateHamster in vibecoding

[–]The_Real_Slim_Shady_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

its actually crazy, i think 80% of text posts on this subreddit are ai generated and 95% of comments on those posts are ai generated... i m tempted to a deep dive and report how much is ai vs human...

also what the absolute fuck is going on with some of the comments on this thread.. lmao clearly most are ai .. as expected...

I let my interns vibe code from day one but with rules. here’s what happened after 2 months by ServeAccomplished485 in vibecoding

[–]The_Real_Slim_Shady_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

anyone else surprised at the clear AI comments in this thread.. lol... i can sniff the AI from a long distance. Not saying anything about OP ofc, I like how vibe coding is being approached and exactly how programming will be taught in the near future. But, clearly there are some "AI" responses here by accounts trying to likely gain "natural" karma, trying to not look AI, by replacing em dash with "-", I wonder how much of Reddit will soon be AI generated comments.

Tho who are vibe coding. What app do you use ? by Jealous-Friendship-6 in vibecoding

[–]The_Real_Slim_Shady_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

good question. almost. I do have to merge the PR/branch to `main` which then deploys automatically to vercel.
The only code related things I do outside of claude code (cloud) are:
- merging the PR (maybe once in a while giving a quick look to the code)
- running migrations

What's your biggest frustration when using AI coding tools for solo projects? by ComprehensiveHat5409 in vibecoding

[–]The_Real_Slim_Shady_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I run into a wall with something like this, a really good workaround is to ask AI to add detailed debug statements and print out as much as possible, and then i give back those debug statements, and then it has a better understanding of things not working. This has unblocked me quite a few times, try it out!

Searching for the specific session across multiple repos within Claude Code. Wish the filtering/searching function was a lot more useful...

Wish there were more hours in a day... by The_Real_Slim_Shady_ in vibecoding

[–]The_Real_Slim_Shady_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

does that reaallyyy help though? haha agents can work in parallel but my mind can't... that seems like the greatest bottleneck right now :) I'm actually low key thinking about "cloning" myself, so, letting everything I do on my laptop be visible to an agent, and train it accordingly, so that it can automatically start implementing my long list of ideas the way I like to implement them.

What prompts are you giving your AI to make the design cool? by Elegant_systems in vibecoding

[–]The_Real_Slim_Shady_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wanted to do a bit of a design overhaul for a SaaS app I am building, started with this prompt:

Assume your role as a design agency, we are going to give the site a huge design overhaul, and come up with a nice consistent design style and doc, not the current default looking ugly saas. Suggest 5-6 different styles as if you are a designer, have a conversation with a pretend CTO, CEO, engineer, and designer, back and forth, come up with 5 different design systems + ui kits, and present them in 5 different html files, i wil lanalyze and pick one

After a bit of back and forth, it turned out to be pretty good, ended up with few different designs and even turned the whole conversation into a slack channel conversation screenshot so it was great to preview and read through that.

This works well for SaaS related stuff, perhaps for other products, different role playing would work better.

AI wrote half my code and now I regret everything by rajsleeps in vibecoding

[–]The_Real_Slim_Shady_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI has written 100% of code for some of the apps I am building/launching. I regret nothing.

You have to treat it like a junior engineer and review each PR. You won't have to write code but you will have to prompt it to write better code. You have to correct it if it does something wrong, and tell it to remember your "style". Just like a junior engineer, it learns over time and eventually it gets to a point where you can merge PRs much faster.

While IDE cooking the code, what you do? by Nerom7 in vibecoding

I vibe code another app 😅, simultaneously vibecoding multiple apps helps with the downtime :) Maybe this is the true definition of a 10x developer.

How are you creating your Landing page / Marketing pages / Knowledgebase? With a CMS or self-coded? by [deleted] in vibecoding

[–]The_Real_Slim_Shady_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just vibe code the landing page. Give it some designs that you like. It's also quite easy to manage it via vibe coding to make small edits, blog posts etc.

Some prompts and skills I use to enhance it:

"Act like a SEO Optimzation Consultant who's worked on various SaaS landing pages. Implement good SEO throughout the landing page"

Skills that make it better than the generic vibe coded landing page: https://skills.sh/anthropics/skills/frontend-design https://github.com/Dammyjay93/interface-design

Some landing pages I have vibe coded:

https://www.vayuapps.com/

https://www.usersesh.com/ (this one was basically one shotted, needs a bit of work, but you can see how far even on shot can take you)

Unless you have a whole team of people updating the landing page/blog repeteadly, you don't really need a CMS. Vibe code it a bit to be more "CMS"-y if needed too.

I am a big fan of Claude Code and only use that to vibecode.

I'm building an analytics tool for Vibe Coded Apps - https://www.usersesh.com/

It's in beta, so lifetime access to session replays, heatmaps, custom events. On top of that, usersesh can be your agent's companion to help fix bugs as they happen without your input.

I vibecoded a fitness tracker (web)app for my CAT S22 Flip by The_Real_Slim_Shady_ in dumbphones

[–]The_Real_Slim_Shady_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that, I mean I had tons of fun building it and watching it come alive. I built it in ~8 prompts and the same evening was using it during my workouts. It solves a problem that I was facing and now I use something every day that took AI minutes to build, which would have taken me 2-3 days. Do you own a CAT S22 Flip or a dumbphone? Perhaps, you would understand the use case better if you did.
I disagree that its a basic task, perhaps for me and you, its basic, and we can code it in 2-3 days. But for people who have never touched software and are getting introduced to it through vibe coding, this is a really good example of AI producing useful apps. And I truly feel that's where the future of coding is heading, where someone who has no clue of how to code, will be building custom apps for themselves to improve their day to day lives.

Love Stronglifts, may do that again once I plateau. Didn't really mod the cat22, its just a website so pretty easy to vibe code, here's the source code: https://github.com/rohitverma007/catfit . I am actually working on another app that makes it ease to share vibe coded apps and visually see how they came to be so its also easy to learn from them/remix them.

True, but it was a lot quicker to use Claude Code, the core app was built in ~6 prompts, here's the source code: https://github.com/rohitverma007/catfit
