    Hi HN, I have been making side projects since I was 14, and my team mate (this is his very first side project! Congrats!) designed and implemented the UI. Over time, people kept asking me how they could start coding and turn ideas into reality. So we had an idea. Coding is changing. With AI, the bottleneck is no longer writing every line by hand but knowing how to prompt effectively to reach a working outcome. Our objective is not to make people code better, or even learn to be a proficient software engineer, but just to keep it simple and start building. We want to remove fear and barriers…

    Vibe check shares benchmarking insights on any vibe coded URLs like: Make, Lovable, Claude code, V0, etc. Provide a link and we'll share your 'time-to-value'. Provide a URL, set a challenge("Find pricing and subscribe") then AI navigates in real-time to report on UX insights: Interactions, time-on-task, drop-off, etc. What's cool about this is that it gives you some quantitive data to act upon in improving the UX of product journeys. Example of sim playback: https://app.appvelocity.io/vibe/simulation/8321db67-883b-445... Example report:…

    Hey HN I built Vibesmonitor because I was tired of spending more time setting up analytics and tools than actually building the project. The frustration Every time I shipped a side project, I’d spend a weekend on setting up various tools: creating tracking plans, wiring dashboards… only to realize I still had no clue why users were dropping off. What it does? One line of code gives you the only three things that actually matter: 1. Where users go and where they get stuck – real user journeys, not just pageviews 2. When your app breaks – errors with full context on real devices 3. What users…

    I kept shipping AI-generated code I didn't really trust. Not because the AI was wrong necessarily, but because I had no real way to know if it was right. So I built a tool to vibe check the vibe code. It scans your code and gives it a Vibe Score: Dead Vibe (0-40), Off Vibe (41-65), Good Vibe (66-85), or Immaculate Vibe (86-100). It checks for security issues, code quality, and test coverage across JS/TS, Python, PHP, Go, Ruby, Rust, Java, Swift, and C#. Plus gives real feedback to address! Free to try. Paste your code and see where it lands.

    I was going through my app subscriptions and realized I was paying $15 for a pretty good workout app, which seemed a bit high to me. As a software engineer who is also well versed in claude code, I realized that I could likely vibecode a very similar app, or even build something more to my liking. I challenged my self to build something roughly equivalent this afternoon. Workflow was: start with a detailed spec from Claude code describing many of the features common in workout apps. Then paste this into lovable to have it build out the initial mvp. Once that was built, I used claude code…

    Hey HN! I started building VIBESxCODED to bring everything I wanted as a developer into one space — prompt-based app generation, live preview, and deployment flows. Still early, still building in public. Would love feedback — brutal honesty welcome.

    Howdy friends. I've been a zero to one product manager for 12 plus years and along the way I kept borrowing pieces from different discovery frameworks until I had a methodology of my own, one that actually raises the odds of an idea succeeding. This does not replace user interviews obviously, but it leads you in the right direction. Looking forward for your feedback

    I've been using Cursor, Co-Pilot, ChatGPT, Claude and what not since quite some time now, and we are at a stage where we can just "vibe code" whole apps from idea to execution in a few prompts. I tried this personally to create some side projects that solved little problems for me. But I always got stuck at a point where it just goes into an infinite loop of issues and can't solve the issue by itself. Well I'm a developer, so it's easier for me to dive into the code and solve the problem myself, but that would take a hell lot of time to understand all the code AI wrote for me. If I keep…
