Elephant in the room of non-technical vibe coders - Vibe Debugging
I recently got fascinated by how powerful vibe coding has become, so I started lurking around Reddit to see what folks have been building. Instead of seeing product demos, I see an equal number of complaints about how users run into a wall when their app is 90% complete. They start burning credits and watching AI running in circles. The frustration is felt all over the place, ranging from Supabase auth problems to Webhook misconfigurations to Deployment failures. We've got Vibe Coding, what about Vibe Debugging?
A good amount of vibe-coders on Bolt Lovable V0 do not have a technical background, and the learning curve of software engineering is pretty steep. It would be too much of an ask to investigate stacktrace and come up with sound debugging instructions. They are not comfortable with the VS-Code like IDE, and do not have confidence reviewing a diff. What option is it out there to help them succeed?
My first instinct is to build a debugging AI agent specialized in various types of issues. But after helping 10s of vibe coders get their apps across the finish line, I found that they don't just want bug fixes, they want expertise backed by human developers. They want the guarantee that their precious "app" is in good hands.
That's when the idea of VibeCheck was born - an expert that helps non-technical builders manage the lifecycle of their apps, powered by human developers behind the scenes. I'll do the dev work so you can focus on growing your use cases. If you are a serious vibe coder and get stuck, give it a shot at: https://troubleshoot.onvibecheck.com/
