"Vibe coding is drastically different from conventional coding. Vibe coding is more of a philosophy than a rigid set of rules; it is a mindset for building. So, in order to master the art & craft of vibe coding, you need to practice a different approach when building products. The 5 principles listed in this article will help you craft a functional product by leveraging AI as a partner rather than just a code generator."
"Start with a plan, not a prompt Abstract prompts lead to generic outputs. When you have only a general idea of what you want to build and feed it to AI, you will rely on AI to fill the information gap. Of course, AI will do it for you, but it will likely lead to a product that isn't aligned with your vision."
Vibe coding is a philosophy and mindset distinct from conventional coding that emphasizes building with intention rather than following rigid rules. The approach treats AI as a collaborative partner and prioritizes product vision, planning, and alignment over immediate code generation. Abstract prompts produce generic outputs, so investing 20–30 minutes to define exactly what to build and why yields more aligned results. Five foundational principles guide the process and apply across AI vibe coding tools. Practical, ready-to-use prompts and tools can support implementation. The method shifts focus from prompt-driven coding to vision-led development to craft functional, purposeful products.
