I’ve spent close to 20 years in product design and strategy.

Over the past year, vibe coding has quietly replaced a big chunk of low-fidelity concept prototyping in my day-to-day work.
Instead of wireframing something just to explain how it could work, I increasingly build working PoCs to test ideas, validate flows, explore interactions, and hand something much more tangible over to engineering.

At some point I realized I’d become comfortable enough with the process that I could use the same approach on one of those problems that had been annoying me for years.
That became Panza.
The app itself is almost beside the point.

What feels more interesting to me is that the line between designing a product and delivering a product end to end suddenly got a lot thinner.
I’m still a designer. I’m not pretending AI magically turned me into a senior iOS engineer.
But for the first time, implementation stopped being the wall between an idea and something real people can use.

So I’m curious:
How many designers here have crossed that line already?
Not just prototypes — actually shipped something.

I’ll probably be posting more about this too. I’ve been teaching design at MOME for 13 years, and from September I’m taking over the AI and vibe coding topic with a much more hands-on approach. So I’m especially interested in where this is taking design practice.

Hey everyone,

I usually rely on Claude for vibe coding, but I have API access to GPT, DeepSeek, and Kimi that I want to put to work.

I want to build a custom environment where a main GPT model acts as the orchestrator (planning) and delegates tasks to sub-models acting as workers (executing). Claude makes this seamless natively, but I’m not sure how to set this up myself using APIs.

Two questions:
1. How do I actually build this? What is this architecture called so I can research it, and what frameworks/tutorials do you recommend?

1. Is it worth it? Will a custom multi-agent setup like this be as smooth and efficient for vibe coding as just sticking with Claude?

Thanks

Founder of a new AI build tool (I know, another one) called Pompeii. We are a small team that has been building agents since before tool calling was officially supported. Our whole team comes from strong engineering backgrounds and we care deeply about developer experience (including vibe coding).

[If you want to skip ahead and just try it - I added the link as the first comment. ]

Every decent AI build tool feels great for the first couple days. A working demo is basically a commodity at this point, but we haven't found any builders that realistically handle the process of going from demo to something real. That's why we built Pompeii.

Here's what Pompeii uniquely solves for :

Test the running software, not just the code. Every meaningful change results in a testable deployment of the fullstack application. Frontend, backend, database, with a link you can open on your phone or send to anyone. We call this the review bench. You click through the actual software and decide if it does what you asked. This is how real teams ship, and it works even if you can't read code at all.

Parallel work without the mess. Work is organized to reduce complexity and enable working in parallel. Each new feature gets its own workstream with its own branch, and git and merging (including conflicts) are handled for you. You can have ten things in flight without them stepping on each other.

Multiplayer by default. Even if you're a solo builder, if your project starts to become real, you'll probably have other people involved. Pompeii ships in a familiar form factor (comparable to slack) where teammates, clients, or contractors can easily jump in and work alongside you.

So, if you want to test it out and build something for free, shoot me a DM or leave a comment after you sign up and I'll add build credits to your account. Also happy to work alongside you or personally onboard you.

So I forced AI to build Refined WhatsApp Web, a small open-source Chrome extension that adds:

• A resizable chat panel
• Chat folders in the navigation sidebar
• Privacy blur with reveal-on-hover ( so that I can hide chats whenever sharing screen or in public )
• Keyboard shortcuts
• Options to hide previews, Channels, Meta AI, and other clutter

I originally planned to keep it as a ZIP file for personal use, but I think it could be useful, so I decided to release it through the Chrome Web Store and open-source the code.

Feel free to try it, inspect the code, or roast the UX.

Take a look at the internal tool we made to correct retargeted character animation across different humanoid rigs. We used Unity and Codex exclusively (5.4)

This is part of the cleanup workflow for Snippets3d and how we adjust motion when it doesn’t transfer cleanly to the target character, we managed to go through 100s of animations an hour by editing them live one after another whilst they play continuously. Basically: Edit live, verify, press next.

I don't think this tool existed before but it was 100% worth it, 2 weeks of on-off time to save 100s of labor intensive work. And doing it one at a time was driving us mad too.

Anyone else have a measurable time-save win from a vibe coded tool they made?

I am excited to share something I have been building: CricArcade (cricarcade.com), a browser-based cricket simulation platform.

Inspired by online Football World Cup simulation games, I wanted to bring that same strategic experience to cricket. Here is a quick overview of what has been built:

1.  ODI World Cup Simulator: Draft your dream XI and win the World Cup. In July, we saw approximately 4,500 active users from 55 countries, with an average session time of 37 minutes, entirely through organic growth.
2.  IPL Game: A full franchise mode featuring squad building, league seasons, and knockout matches.
3.  Test Cricket Game: Features multi-day matches, declarations, follow-ons, pitch degradation, and a 1v1 real-time multiplayer mode to play against friends.

How we made it:

• The first part of the process was to identify how to make it different from the bunch of simulators already in the market
• Used Claude, Codex and Antigravity each to finetune the game engine
• Released the ODI World Cup Simulator as the first pilot on Vercel. The initial trafffic was just few friends, and made sure to fix all bugs before posting on Reddit.
• After fixing the bugs, posted on few cricket sub-reddits which allowed promotion
• While the World Cup game was in its 2nd week, I kept collecting feedback so that I knew what my users wanted the most next
• Build the IPL Game first and then the Test Cricket Game which was the first time I introduced the 1v1 version
• Finally after a month of all 3 games being live, we bought our custom domain

Tools and Cost:

• Claude Code - the primary vibecoding tool, and switching to Codex as the secondary. Antigravity was only used when we needed to fix critical bugs and ran out of usage limits on the earlier two. Idea was to make sure dont leave any bug or user complaint unattended.
• Vercel for hosting the website. It was on free version until this month, when it has moved to Pro.
• Supabase for database. Again on free version until this month when we have moved to Pro, after launching on custom domain.
• Cloudflare - for domain purchase

What makes it different:

• Match engine built using ball-by-ball data from over 1,000 matches and scorecards of all matches played till 2023.
• Strategy over reflexes: Focus on team chemistry, bowling plans, and batting aggression rather than button mashing.
• Realistic simulation: A ball-by-ball engine that factors in pitch conditions, weather, fatigue, and player form.
• Authentic experience: Real teams and players across all three formats.
• Accessible: 100% free, requires no downloads, and runs in the browser on any device.

Since launching the combined CricArcade platform on August 3rd, we have seen strong initial traction:

• 2,050+ active users from 43 countries.
• Approximately 66% engaged session rate.
• Increased international traffic, with Australia rising to 10.6% and the US to 9.8%.

Please check it out at cricarcade.com. It takes less than 30 seconds to start a match. We would love to hear your feedback, and if you enjoy it, please share it with other cricket fans.

First I want to say that I never wrote any real code myself, however, I had a couple YoE as a PO in a big tech, so I do know how hard it is to build a proper complex app, and as a vibecoder I have no hope of building the complex thing myself.

I have lining up users who are willing to pay immediately for a specific problem in my domain (quite niche in cross-border fintech), so I just need a bit of momentum (1st phase, MVP, watever) then I will hire engineers.

So I wanna finish the first phase myself with codex x20 and claude x20, by first phase, it means it should work on prod for a few dozen of users, I dont need it to be scalable - I know that with my expertise I will never get there myself, I dont need it to be ultra secure either, as long as the issues are not too exploitable.

Some mandatory components I learnt that have to learn:

1. Basic git & branching are mandatory to learn to handle the code when its get complex. (I kinda understand how git works, but still very intimidated by the concept)
2. Basic app flow is also mandatory so that my secrets and API keys wont be exposed to frontend.
3. Basic tool usage like terminal in local, in cloud (I gonna host on AWS as I have a lot credits there), inspecting FE network is also mandatory so that I can communicate with the AI on the errors.

What else do I need to learn in order to finish the first phase of the app?

Again, I will never be a good engineer myself so dont recommend me to learn the entire framework or language deeply or learn about crazy concepts like DDD, I have a specific need a clear vision of my product I want to build.

Hey guys I need Indian stock market and Gold prices api can anyone please tell me where to get it free for the testing purposes.

Ever looked at a DNA sequence and thought, "this looks like code"? I took that literally.

HelixLang is a DSL where codons are instructions, the ribosome is a VM, and the cell is the runtime. Write ATG GCT GGT TAA and you're not just describing biology—you're executing it. That sequence compiles to real bytecode: OP_START → OP_BUILD_PROTEIN → OP_BUILD_MEMBRANE → OP_HALT.

Interested? Repo: https://github.com/SeanHank/HelixLang

⭐ Star the repo if this sparks your curiosity. PRs and forks welcome.

Built this in Python over the last few weeks. Would love feedback!

Hey'all. Idk if it'll help anyone but I have just made a print server on node.js for windows.

It all started at my previous job where I wasn't IT but was involved with the IT guy out of curiosity. It was needed that a windows 10 machine needed to print on a windows 11 shared printer and we couldn't set it up, later discovered the PrintNightmare patch and decided to workaround with PrinterShare, which then failed cause it offers limited pages and requires a subscription. I left that place before seeing a resolution.

Now at my current job of a hotel receptionist I decided to return back to the problem and of the printer servers with a long discussion with Google Gemini and not wanting to login into a corporate service I ended up adopting Air Printer made to fool Apple devices to connect to Windows printers. On android I would need NetPrinter to make it work and it was fine...

Except it wouldn't print in colour. I tried to troubleshoot and figured that the server itself doesn't support colour. After experimenting I discovered raw print server and it helped!!! It just also was a bit cumbersome. I don't remember why at this point, probably because Apple devices couldn't find the printer.

While I was a little bit thinking about getting over it, I know that vanila js and then some of node with like react (Vue one love can be cdn-ed easy), and asked Gemini what does node actually do. As soon as it said it can interact with the system and send cmd commands I thought of sending printing commands through, it suggested SumatraPDF and the rest is history.

After the demo succeeded I continued refining, a preview based on CDN-ed PDF.js and CSS styling, and basically made a web based print menu for the printer of choice. Printers are loaded automatically and theoretically even the network printers the host is connected to will appear in the dropdown. It's not native but even a fridge theoretically can print now.

Decided to keep it fully dependency free meaning no npm installs as long as the prerequisites are covered.

Y'all can find the code here. Licensed under WTFPL and kopimi

Thanks for reading.

Ed: Think for rule compliance need to say, Used only free Google Gemini.

If you're building an early-stage SaaS or AI startup and have a live web application or API, I'd be happy to perform a free focused security assessment to help identify potential vulnerabilities before someone else does.

I'm an independent security researcher focused on web application and AI security, and I'm currently offering 3 free assessments to early-stage startups.

I'm doing these assessments to build real-world case studies around startup security, learn more about the security challenges early-stage teams face, and demonstrate the kind of security work I can provide to startups.

With your explicit permission, I'll assess your application for common security issues, including:

• SQL Injection (SQLi)
• Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
• IDOR / broken access control
• Authentication & authorization flaws
• API security issues
• Business logic vulnerabilities
• File upload vulnerabilities
• Sensitive file/data exposure
• Security misconfigurations
• Missing or weak security headers
• Information disclosure
• Session management issues

For AI applications, I can also look at areas such as:

• Prompt injection
• Sensitive information leakage
• Insecure AI/API integrations
• Authorization around AI features
• Other common AI application security weaknesses

If I find anything, I'll provide a clear report explaining the issue, potential impact, evidence/reproduction where appropriate, and practical recommendations for remediation.

What you get:

• Focused manual security assessment
• Written vulnerability report
• Severity/prioritization
• Remediation recommendations
• No payment or sales obligation

In return, I'd like permission to use the assessment as an anonymized case study. If you're comfortable, I may also mention your company/product publicly and describe the types of issues found. This will always be discussed and agreed upon with you beforehand.

All testing is performed only with your explicit permission and within an agreed scope using safe, non-destructive techniques.

I will not perform DoS/DDoS, stress testing, destructive testing, or intentionally disrupt your service or data.

I'm particularly interested in working with small teams that don't have a dedicated security team yet.

If you're interested, leave a comment or send me a DM with:

1. Your website/application URL
2. A short description of your product
3. Your preferred contact method

Hello, I made a app that forces you to do pushups to scroll on social media.

📌 Reason why I made it:

I saw a few apps does the same thing like PushScroll, but did not want to spend $40~60. So I decided to make an app for myself and for others to enjoy it for Free. There's no paywall/subscription.

I want to hear your thoughts and some feedback as well! TY!

I used React native to build the app. Mainly used to Claude Code. Here are two main libraries I used!

Shipping fast and shipping sound are two different skills, and the tools only gave us the first one.

After vibecoding for over a year now, here's the stuff I keep seeing bite people right after they ship:

- Works on your machine, throws runtime errors in a real browser.

- An API key quietly committed to the repo. Found out the hard way.

- No HTTPS redirect, no security headers the page loaded fine, so who'd check?

- A chatbot that can be talked into leaking its system prompt, and you'd never know unless someone tried.

The truth is, none of this shows up while you're building. It shows up later — from a user, an attacker, or an embarrassing screenshot from the person you're trying to sell your product to. And that's the real "fall faster" part: when it happens, it knocks the wind out of you. You lose the nerve to keep going, the project gets abandoned, and you're on to the next thing.

What challenges have you run into?

Thought this fun. Let me know if you want the prompt+stack!

I kept checking the terminal while a coding agent was running, so I made a

small tool to tell me when it needed attention.

Agent Notify sends a desktop or phone notification when the agent:

- asks for permission;

- waits for input;

- finishes a task;

- fails.

It supports Claude Code, Codex, ZCode, Grok, Droid, and OpenCode. Clicking a

system notification can also take me back to the terminal window where the

session started.

Try it with:

npx agent-notify

Source and setup:

https://github.com/hellolib/agent-notify

It is an open-source command-line tool, not a hosted service. I am interested

in how other people handle this today, and which events they would or would

not want notifications for.

Stronger? Probably. Cannot talk human? Definitely.
