#vibecoding : how many apps have you vibe coded so far?

I just give it a try, then start using it at daily basis mainly to fixing minor bugs but sometimes even to build more complex thing inside iOS app. It's not perfect, sometimes he fix bug but also mess up with UI. I have golden lines I past every time I want him to fix some errors:

"please dont break logic or UI and dont make new files check other files first carefully.

try to fix things at the cause, not the symptom."

Honestly works like a charm now.

Hey there, iused it for several nextjs projects like landing pages, web apps etc. now on my expo react app for zamsara.com . and sometimes even for cleaning csv tables. It can go rogue like any golden retriever going after a deer. but memory bank and cursorrules help now

Half my infra management tools.

Knowledge base for all my projects.

Couple of good e2e products that could have easily taken me 1-2 years.

Boomerang tasks are amazing.

I just hope at some point there is good local llm version of sonnet 3.7, I would pay more if I had to. Just to have that airplane or airgapped mode of coding.

Still I think gaurdrails could be better.

I have explicitly mentioned in the rules. And all different places never run commands or delete stuff. But it will kind of override those. That's annoying.

But nonetheless it's pretty evident that if you only need to do boilerplate code or some minor plumbing in the apis. Cursor does a great job.

Ui development and integration is a breeze. I usually just drop the screen and api spec. It creates the entire component out of thin air. And that still amazes me to this date.

I incorporate Cursor into almost every project I build, though I've never used it exclusively for any single product. It's always in my workflow somewhere—one of my go-to tools that I rely on constantly.

My first choice is still the Cline plugin for VS Code, but I can definitely see Cursor taking its place eventually. The token costs for Cline are becoming more noticeable lately. Don't get me wrong, I've seen the quality improvements, but I know I can also access Cline through Cursor (though I tend to burn through my token limits way too fast in Cursor).

I've started playing around with Gemini more since it's easier on the wallet. Maybe it's just about shifting my mindset going forward.

To answer your question—Yes, I vibe code all the time, and sometimes even write traditional code too. As AI gets more powerful, there's less need for typing everything out the old-fashioned way. Funny story though—when I first submitted my chrome extension VIP (Vision Intelligent Pilot) to the Google Store for review, they rejected it because I leaned too heavily on AI. After a second look by both me and my AI buddy, I'm happy to say it finally got approved!

So yeah, I vibe code a lot and while I have less free time these days, it's not because vibe coding sucks—it's because I got so excited about it that I've taken on way too many projects! Now I'm trying to find that balance again.

it's going fantastic. built several apps including who covers it, which i just released on product hunt. also built a music tracking and insights app. a few different bots. ai tech support. and even a couple chrome extensions!

it's empowering, man!

At least a hundred. some fun ones here: https://starterbuild.com/just-playing-around/

The only mildly useful one I use is https://www.colorpicker.photos/ - PWA for those sweet hex codes when i attempt to design.

Going great – was able to finally pick up work on my side project again, and polishing it up for release. All thanks to cursor‘s AI agent integration 💪
