Vibe Coding

Vibe coding is an AI-dependent programming technique where a person describes a problem in a few sentences as a prompt to a large language model tuned for coding. The LLM generates software, shifting the programmer's role from manual coding to guiding, testing, and refining the AI-generated source code.

Vibe coding has opened up the world of development to anyone who has an interest in creating software tools or products based on an idea.Below you can see two projects I'm working on right now, with several others in the planning stage.
