No code is dead. Long live vibe coding. | Kenneth Auchenberg
Briefly

The article argues that no-code tools, which promised to democratize software creation over the last decade, have failed to deliver on their promises. Instead, a new paradigm has emerged: vibe coding, leveraging AI and language models to generate production-grade code from natural language. This shift shows users prefer the flexibility and power of actual code over closed, proprietary no-code platforms. The unbundling of no-code is highlighted, pointing to a desire for control and the ability to deploy in open infrastructures rather than being confined to bundled solutions.
It's 2025, and it's time to call it: No-code is dead.
Natural language is proving to be a more powerful interface than drag-and-drop WYSIWYG editors.
Turns out people didn't want less code - they wanted a better way to write code.
