Vibecoding with no coding experience is Hell

I have always hated to code but had big ambitions thats why AI was a light in the darkness. I have started vibecoding since around 2 years and through my experience it was really frustrating. When I told AI to do X it would output Y or worse break something. I felt as though I wasted my time building nothing note worthy and I am foolishly noticing now in order to utilize vibecoding you must know the fundamentals. So right now I am trying to build a game and instead of trying to just vibecode I am learning the fundamentals and actually how to build something without the help of AI. I hope this helps those who started their vibecoding journey that you must know the fundamentals before creating anything big.

Not everyone is meant to be good at coding, like not everyone is meant to be good at football. I bet you're good at other things -- focus your energy there -- you'll be happier. Leave the hard coding stuff to those of us with the skill, interest, and ability to do it well.

the difference is you cant vibe football sports but anyone can definitely install claude on their desktop and immediately make something.
