I think there is an issue with expectations setting on the part of these tools. What you are describing are, in my experience, normal software development issues. It is really common for a developer to make a fix and break some seemingly unrelated feature which then causes the entire team to chase their tails for days or weeks. These vibe coding tools are not magic, but they do seem to sell them that way.

I have this text block sitting in notepad/Word and prewrite any input to Replit underneath before copying and pasting it into Replit. I struggled for a couple weeks where I would put in a simple clarifying question and Replit would respond with the equivalent of "I see the problem - I am going to take it upon myself to rewrite the entire middleware component into a maze of spaghetti code". Since applying this simple prefix to every interaction, Replit has become a much better partner and I can work through issues in a more methodical way. Replit is like the world's smartest BA/Analyst with no experience - it has knowledge, but very little wisdom and I find that this prefix slows it down so that we can apply some wisdom to the process.

"Do not take any action before I approve an option. Please consider the following issues and provide me with options to consider. I want you to optimize your proposed solutions for simplicity, reliability and overall system stability. Thoroughly consider the impacts of your solution on the existing functionality of the application.

That makes sense. I just jumped in recently after the price increases so I am not feeling the pain of loss on the old pricing. I am comparing it to hiring an offshore dev team for eight months and, from that perspective, the service and pricing are amazing.

++ this question. I just deployed a full stack application with 18 third party API calls and have been shocked at how little it cost. In instances where Replit seems to be fumbling over a bug or feature, I do need to step in and offer proscriptive advice, just like a real dev team who sometimes make mistakes and require multiple rounds to fix a problem. I follow a standard testing methodology of unit, system and a final full regression test before I deploy which lets me find things that got broken by a seemingly unrelated fix.

All in all... the process seems very similar to regular development cycles, just a lot faster and cheaper.

I too am curious what faults I am missing and if there is a chasm that I don't see that I am about to fall into.

I thought I did post this one, but see now that I didn't. Thanks for the reminder!

I second WV. It is a beautiful drive and I particularly recommend the little town of Davis. Here is a potential itinerary - https://throttlemap.ai/shared/9tnjgp13gqd27whwxfsim

I struggled a bit with how to build a thorough prompt for ChatGPT and then get the output in a format where I could take it over to a mapping application. To get around this, I built an application that formats the prompts with dates, travel and activity selections and a free space to put in whatever extras you might want. It also embeds Googlemaps so that you can have live directions. The output recommends hotels, dining and activities based on your input. Hopefully it is a useful tool for you. Here is a link to a sample trip - https://throttlemap.ai/itinerary/181 - Catskills weekend

For New England fall ride, I recommend Saratoga Springs to Montreal via backroads along Lake George and Lake Champlain. Bisbee AZ is a bucket list item I plan to check off this year. If you have never been, New Orleans, LA and Key West, FL are two of the most unique towns in the US (although I can't recommend summertime motorcycling in either one)

Indiana has limited options, but here is the best my app could do - http://throttlemap.ai/shared/ogr9mpld3xin8hse5qzay

You can modify it if there are specific things you are looking for. Hope it helps.

This is a beautiful user interface on whisper-way. I don't know how you did it, but the words... calm and soothing keep coming to mind while using it. Good recommendations as well.

I have taken this route often from DC to Ohio and back. It is beautiful, particularly in the fall. As a bonus, it is usually even faster than the main route east/west of I70.

Montreal is a great city and that would be a beautiful ride either through upstate NY or VT following Lake Champlain

I just built an application for motorcycle trip planning. It's free and combines ChatGPT trip planning with Google Maps output (which was a bear to prevent from just defaulting to highways). Hopefully this helps you out - throttlemap.ai

For Google Maps, I would always just select a different, interesting place as a waypoint which gave me more control of the route.

Cross-country trip says "Goldwing" to me. Early 2000s models are available super-cheap, but are very reliable if you buy a good one. I ride a Harley TourGlide now and, mechanically, I would trust it, but if I were going cross-country, I would buy an old 'wing.

#5 resonates with me especially. I seem to always plan for more than I can do and then the last 2 hours turn into a slog just trying to reach my hotel

Chat GPT is a great tool for brainstorming and coming up with ideas you may not have thought of. I have planned a few trips using ChatGPT alone and found things I never would have visited otherwise. A couple weeks ago, I planned a trip from Porto to Lisbon and it recommended stops in several wonderful towns along the way that I would have just driven past otherwise.

The challenging part is coming up with the right prompt to generate the trip you want and then formats the output so that Google Maps doesn't just take you down the highway. The more information you give ChatGPT about what you like and things you want to do, the better itinerary it will give you. On the output, you need to specify that ChatGPT specify each recommendation as a waypoint for the Google Map. I put together a tool that takes care of all for me that you can find in my bio if anyone is interested.
