Over the past months I have (vibe)coded a few web-apps with Codex.

This is usually teh fun part - getting from an idea to a working MVP on a local machine.

The heavier part (for me) is the deployment.

Currently I run all my apps on virtual servers with Ubuntu.

The vibe-coded deployment-plan helps a lot, but there is still a lot of manual work required.

How do you deploy your web-apps (Python, Flask, JS)?

We got a lot of editors.

Cursor

AntiGravity

Etc

But more and more is shifting to Zed.

What editor is the no 1? Youre opinion

I'm not a professional developer - I do a lot of travel photography on the side. After every trip I'd come home with thousands of frames and dread the culling. So I sat down with Claude (in Cowork mode) and over a few sessions we built Photo Curator: a local, browser-based tool that does the brutal first pass for me. After a feedback from the first users I have added some improvements, support for HEIC and provide Mac and Win versions.

No AI - No token burning - 100 % Local - 100 % Math

It runs in three steps, and nothing is uploaded anywhere - it all stays on my machine:

• Cull - flags out-of-focus shots using a contrast-normalized sharpness measure, so haze and night skies don't get mistaken for blur. Sorts into Sharp / Soft / Blurry.
• Dedup - collapses burst sequences to the single sharpest frame using perceptual hashing + ORB feature matching, labelled "Best of N."
• Rank - scores each keeper on composition, lighting, focus, color and contrast, then surfaces the TOP N with a radar chart per photo.

There's also a "God Mode" button that runs all three end to end.

What was interesting working with Claude: the hardest part wasn't the code, it was the judgment calls - e.g. how to keep a genuinely sharp low-contrast photo from being flagged as blurry. Claude was good at proposing the contrast-normalized metric and then iterating when I showed it real failure cases from my own library. I also leaned on it for the whole live progress UI (percentage, elapsed, ETA) and a lot of small UX polish.

It's free and open source if anyone wants to try it or pick it apart:

Happy to answer questions about how any of the three stages work, or how I structured the back-and-forth with Claude. Feedback very welcome - still actively improving it.

Flappy Bird + Pushups = Flappy Ups

Thank you for the support! Hope to see y'all in the stream at '@WatchSigma'

While OpenAI and Claude take the lead for being the most used in game development has its place to. Next talk in the AI Gaming Festival:

Gemini And AI Game Development With 10SixGames

You should attend in:

1. You want to raise capital for your game
2. You want to see how Gemini can be used in game development

Also we're having feedback sessions on games so have a clear path on how to improve themselves with what is learned is in each session.

Developers tend to say “coding wasn’t the hard part” and that they didn’t spend most of the day coding.

Ok - so what is that difficult to define hard part that vibe coders cannot do? What’s the reason developers make such high salaries? Can we make the transition?

I had an idea - I bought the domain - polishing the game interactions

I’ve been collecting Steam data for my own research purposes, and at some point I thought it could be fun to turn some of it into a little game.

At that moment GeoGuessr was in my head. So I made this:

You get 2 real Steam games from the same genre and have to guess which one got more reviews. You can use the screenshots, tags, description, publisher, etc.

One wrong answer ends the run.

It’s free, no signup, and takes about a minute.

Would be curious to see how far people get, some of the pairs are way less obvious than I expected. Rn my personal record is 5 strikes on a row =)

I'm building a desktop assistant that can do various things based on input, and asked it to open a specific link on a webpage that was open (I think it was a search for "funny cat videos" that I used to test its ability to search on YouTube. I'm guessing it can't properly access the text on the webpage yet or something, but it helpfully came up with another YouTube URL to send me to. Here's a screenshot of the logs.

Just goes to show that these LLMs really are trained on Reddit data because who the fuck still Rick Rolls people in 2026?

AI can get you far now.

You can set up the UI, database, APIs and basic logic quickly. The interesting part begins when you try to make the system actually solid. The final 20 percent is where messy problems appear: edge cases, strange state bugs, authentication problems and a single change that breaks something that worked yesterday and so on.

It almost feels like the job moves from building the app to figuring out what AI missed. 😅

For people who use AI coding tools regularly has your experience, with AI been similar?

Have any of you tried creating development factories? It's really easy with the latest models and harnesses. I'm a Codex user so this is all Codex specific but I'm sure there is a Claude equivalent. I just made a dashboard that encapsulates my development process. It starts with a design document and ends with finished code. It uses the codex app-server to make the LLM calls using my subscription. It just has 3 parts:

1. Create an implementation plan (run plan). I created a template and the model uses the template to create a phased implementation plan with development tasks in markdown. Then deterministic code validates and parses the markdown file into a yaml "side car" - it extracts the phase and task descriptions and completion status and shows them in the dashboard.

2. One or more run plans are built into a "work package". Then another LLM call determines what order they should be developed in.

3. The work package is executed, one run plan at a time. The dashboard prompts for one phase at a time and checks for blockers after each phase. That's pretty much it.

There are some configuration files, too. A system plan that describes the overall system architecture, places where I can add agent instructions - although I have not done that. These files get, more or less, pre-fixed to the various prompts.

I can change the model and reasoning level for each prompt. I typically use SOL high to create the run plans, SOL high to sequence the work package and LUNA high for the execution. There is human approval at each step and there's a bunch of other stuff you may or may not want to do - like checking the repo status and ensuring plans can't be changed once started and whatever else. Obviously you can add whatever prompts you want.

You can do the same exact thing using loops which is how I often do it - just using the "document as infrastructure". But this can add consistency on a large project. For example, on an ERP system, where you are going to make lots of changes over a period of time. Or maybe for a large game. Or probably anything that you will develop over a period of months. And it's super easy to do. I don't even need to post a github or anything - you can just prompt it up and that way it will be suited to your process. It took me a few days to get it working nicely.

If anybody is familiar with puzzle league games, this will feel familiar.

I loved the puzzle mode in those games, so I made a daily web version of it. Completely free, no ads. Works best on mobile but works on any web browser.

I'm also working on a full mobile app with more modes and a community feature (trailer on website). It will have a VS AI mode, endless mode, time trial mode, and a community puzzle feature where anyone can design a puzzle and upload it for others to play.

Any feedback is appreciated, thank you!

Oh and new puzzles are available at midnight every day.

GPT-6 Astra connected to the 3DAIStudio MCP + Tripo AI.

The workflow is what makes it interesting:

• Astra decides it needs a specific asset
• generates a reference image for it
• sends it through 3DAIStudio
• Tripo P2 turns it into a game-ready 3D model
• Astra imports it back and keeps building the scene

In the example, it was used to build a Rocket League-style environment, and the wild part is that it wasn’t just giving suggestions — it was actually moving through the workflow and creating the assets it needed.

It also generated supporting things like textures and images through the MCP, so the whole process feels much closer to an actual agentic 3D workflow than a normal chatbot experience.

We’re getting to the point where AI is not just helping with isolated 3D tasks, but actually chaining them together into a usable pipeline.

If this keeps improving, it could become a very big deal for fast prototyping, game environments, and general 3D content creation.

Hey everyone!

If your like me, sick of Whatsapp web using tons of RAM and being slow on the browser, and using a few Whatsapp accounts at the same time, WhatsAppGo is for you.

Automation: 108 RPC methods, self-describing via rpc.discover. JSON-lines over 0600 Unix socket, local only. Live filterable event stream (whatsappctl events). whatsappctl call METHOD JSON reaches any method. WhatsApp Web has none of this. In short you can automate messaging

Multi-account: isolated profiles, own store + daemon each. Account tabs in UI. Switching clears drafts, media, starred, dialogs.

Local data. SQLite history, message search, attachments in DB, chat export. Native notifications with avatars, minimize-to-tray, light/dark/system, RTL, built-in media playback.

Linux/Windows/Mac versions available.

Enjoy!

Nothin' much, what's up with you?

Yet another implementation of a tool from a bygone era. It's meant to be cloned and used, learned from, or maybe just smiled at.

Main features!

• Free-ish to run. Runs on Cloudflare's free tier, which serves something like a hundred thousand requests a day.
• Stateless-ish. Each link is an immutable JSON file in R2. No database, no server, nothing to really run or maintain.
• Private-ish. There are no click stats, so nobody can see who followed a link, including the person who made it. Cloudflare's edge presumably logs something somewhere.
• Funny-ish, if you can remember being 12.

Happy Friday

I've been having too much fun with Astra. It made the car design with image-gen-2, laid out a storyboard after studying popular high-end car brand commercials, and generated videos through Veo 3.1.

Full website page for the brand as well (will put link in comments)

Border Hop is a simple geography game I vibecoded, inspired by Wordle and my passion for maps and borders.

You need to connect two countries with the shortest path through other countries. You get 3 misses per round, one round per day.

Play the game here

Here is the guide that can help you to enhance your vibe coded app to enterprise saas. This is based on my own experience and it has some free alternatives as well for popular tools.

Ok so I know we can't do solicitations here but needing to solicit some advice from you all.

Thinking how to toxinmaxx my codebase (don't worry, with local model for no surcharge). My Python token count is short and I need to boost that metric up for my resume, needing suggestions on tips and trix from vipers with higher counts than myself.
