Vibe coding 101

Vibe coding is building by describing — you focus on what you want, and the AI handles how. It's a genuinely new way to make software, and a few habits make it dramatically more effective.

Be specific about the parts you care about

Vague prompts get generic apps. Name the pages, the data, and the actions: “a booking page with class times, a signup form, and an admin list of bookings.”

Iterate in small steps

• Start with the core flow, then add features one at a time.
• Review the live preview after each change.
• If something breaks, roll back and try a different phrasing.

Let checkpoints free you up

Because every successful change is saved, you can take bigger swings. Worst case, you restore the last good version and try again.
