Vibe Coding (look ma'! I'm a developer!)
I've been vibe coding again, but this time I took a different approach. I focused on stuff whose workings I already understand. It was a very different experience.
The first time I tried to make an iOS app, with the hope that if it worked, I would also do a macOS app from that. But it didn't work: too many errors that the AI agent couldn't really solve, and I wasn’t much help because I was totally out of my element.
This time I decided to focus on problems I wanted to solve for myself (the old "scratch your own itch"), and to ask the assistants to make web apps in technologies I already know and work with every day. This was the key to successfully finish and ship stuff that actually worked.
I made two things: CCCOLUMNS (repo), a quick note taker for my day to day, and IIIMGS (repo), an image hosting hoarding solution. Why the naming convention? I don't know, it seemed fun and more likely to be available as service subdomains. Also, I like them as a humble tribute to the awesome and now defunct ffffound!
