AWS previews Kiro IDE for devs over vibe coding
Briefly

Amazon Web Services has developed Kiro, an agentic IDE aimed at improving code quality while avoiding issues associated with vibe coding. This tool leverages generative AI to provide developers with a conversational interface where they can articulate their project requirements. Kiro produces initial outputs in the form of specifications, which are structured like user stories and incorporate acceptance criteria to address various edge cases. The generated output also includes code ready for integration into Git, enhancing collaboration among different teams and promoting a more effective coding environment.
Kiro's output also includes a list of services and actual code that's pushed to Git, ensuring that developers have the necessary resources at hand for their projects.
AWS believes Kiro delivers code that's closer to production-ready, providing a better environment for finishing projects and ongoing maintenance tasks.
The specs produced by Kiro are written like user stories and include EARS notation acceptance criteria, which addresses edge cases typically faced by developers.
Deepak Singh emphasized that Kiro's conversational interface allows developers to articulate their project requirements, leading to improved code generation through detailed specifications.
