📊 Learn to Vibe Code in 10 Minutes

Vibe Coding has taken the world by storm.

It’s when you build software by simply describing what you want, rather than writing traditional code.

You tell the AI your idea, it generates the code, and then you can keep prompting it with changes until you're satisfied with the result.

Vibe-coding Tools

If you’re a beginner, start with ChatGPT, it’s great for simple projects like static websites or mini-games.

To build full, production-ready apps, try Emergent, a platform built specifically for end-to-end vibe coding.

💡 Vibe Coding Tips

Here’s how to get the most out of vibe coding:

#1 Learn how to prompt the right way:

Always specify your business goal, core features, target users, and success criteria.

#2 Remember that version control is critical:

Always use Git or GitHub to save your progress regularly. When something breaks, you can always roll back to a working version instead of starting over.

#3 Try to understand your code:

Don't just accept what the AI gives you. Ask it to explain how things work and add comments to the code. This will make things easier if things ever go wrong in production.

#4 Keep security front-of-mind:

Make sure you explicitly tell the AI to include security measures, and add the right amount of protection in place before you scale your application to the public.
