What the heck is vibe coding
It's similar to stealing code directly from Github, Stackoverflow, or some similar site, except you beg the chatbot to fix the bad code it spat out.
Asking an AI to code for you and doing very limited coding yourself. Just feed the errors into the AI and take it's solution as gospel.
If I'm hyper critical of anything the AI puts out, not accepting it as gospel and turn whatever crap it gives me into a working solution, is that vibe coding as well?
No, it's just spending three times as much effort into fixing the slop as you'd spend coding yourself
Negativity of the AI crowd is so crazy to me while I'm having Claude Code Opus implement entire UIs on flutter and backend Go interfaces w/ unit and integration tests on a single go.
Bless you....
