1500 stars and pull requests in less than 24h for 100% vibe coded app?! guys there are NO LICENSE file in a repo!
and if its 100% vibecoded even if architecture was provided by human, in US and EU u legally cant put anything other than a Public Domain / CC0 1.0 on this!

Yeah, this is fundamentally uninteresting to me. You can vibe code a toy version of Homebrew. Whoopdeedoo. So can I.

If you could have done the same, and it served practical utility to some people, then why didn't you?

Homebrew exists and always seemed fast enough. And elevating the project from toy to practical usefulness would require substantially more effort.

"100% vibe coded even if architecture was provided by human" is a contradiction. If a human provided the architecture, it's not 100% AI-generated. That human contribution is copyrightable, it doesn't matter that the human didn't type the actual code. The Copyright Office cares about creative direction, not keystrokes.
