"✨ Lately, I've found myself completely hooked on something called vibe coding. It's a way of building software using AI + intuition - where coding feels less like wrestling with syntax and more like having a creative conversation. Instead of staring at documentation and edge cases, I describe what I want to feel, and the product begins to take shape. As a designer, this cracked open an entirely new world for me."
"Instead of thinking about frameworks, data structures, or edge cases, I describe the experience I want to create - the scenario, the mood, the purpose. For example: "I want a clean, minimalist to-do list. It should support adding and deleting tasks, feel calm and distraction-free, and look good enough to show in a presentation demo." No architecture diagrams. No technical constraints. Just the vibe."
"Traditional coding workflows are structured, methodical, and precise. You translate requirements into logic, write code line by line, debug relentlessly, and only then see results. Vibe coding flips that sequence. It emphasizes: Immediate feedback Fast iteration Human-AI collaboration Rather than obsessing over perfect specifications upfront, I start with intention and momentum. The result? Ideas move from imagination to a working prototype far faster than I ever thought possible."
Vibe coding combines AI and human intuition to build software by describing the desired experience rather than technical specifications. Workflows prioritize immediate feedback, fast iteration, and human-AI collaboration instead of methodical, line-by-line implementation. Ideas move from imagination to working prototypes much faster by starting with intention and momentum rather than exhaustive upfront specs. The workflow is distilled into five reusable steps that guide the transition from vibe to runnable prototype. Step one emphasizes setting the mood and purpose, using examples like a clean, minimalist to-do list to convey the desired feeling. This approach reduces focus on architecture and constraints, allowing designers to remain abstract longer and iterate rapidly.
