What it does
Shadow Coding is an AI-coding technique that involves writing pseudocode and having the AI transform that into high-quality, production-ready code. It's better than Vibe Coding because it can: - Product consistently high-quality code, - That is closer to what the developer wants, - Faster and using fewer tokens, - With significantly cheaper and open-source models. Shadow Code is available as a free & open-source VS Code and Cursor Extension.

100 Vibe Coding2025 · 100vibecoding.com · ▲351Hi 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…
- IBI built a wizard to turn ideas into AI coding agent-ready specsNov 2025 · vibescaffold.dev · ▲71
I created vibescaffold.dev. It is a wizard-style AI tool that will guide you from idea → vision → tech spec → implementation plan. It will generate all the documents necessary for AI coding agents to understand & iteratively execute on your vision. How it works: - Step 1: Define your product vision and MVP - Step 2: AI helps create technical architecture and data models - Step 3: Generate a staged development plan - Step 4: Create an AGENTS.md for automated workflows I've used AI coding tools for awhile. Before this workflow (and now, this tool), I kept getting "close but not quite" results…

If you are concerned about AI replacing your coding job, fear not! Just level up and get very good at vibecoding. "Vibe coding is the art of leveraging AI tools to their fullest potential in software development, creating a seamless fusion between human creativity and machine intelligence. It represents a paradigm shift where developers orchestrate AI systems rather than writing every line manually." The big tools out there are cursor, cline, aider, and Claude Code. https://andrewarrow.dev/ This site was made with Claude Code from just 1 prompt. Go ahead and register and give…

Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
