Everyone makes it sound like vibe coding is so easy … but I don’t see any vibe coders who weren’t already full time devs making new apps…

🎯 finally someone mentioning the amount of knowledge and experience needed to vibe code
Vibe coding is like when you're 17 years old and you're super excited because you realize you can finally touch the rim, but you still can't dunk.

The great prompt boy myth
We're up to "learn to prompt" but pretty much everyone is still stuck at "learn to code"
Yeah, it is easy to get into a mess with AI if you aren’t a seasoned developer.
I have zero experience with coding and was able to make this simple Bitcoin Tower Defense game as my first attempt/project with vibe coding. (It took about a week)
Def frustrating at times, and also feels like magic, but for having no experience it was really cool seeing this brought to life etc. (I'm aware it's not perfect/buggy)
I know I'm not going to get rich from vibe coding but really cool to be able to build an MVP/proof of concept of something without having to spend a lot of time/money.
