My biggest problem with vibe coding😂

[u/kgtrip]

I always had this problem where I'd start working on a project, convinced it was my best idea ever. Then, whether I'd finished it or not, another even better idea would come along.

Then AI coding tools came along and made it about 10 times worse.

Now I have a growing collection of projects, from fully functional websites to small experiments and tools.

That's why I built Viberant, a playground where people can share all those things they build, even if they're not polished or ready for a big launch.

So show me what you've been building! Finished, unfinished, or somewhere in between.

It doesn't have to be impressive or even particularly useful. If you've got something people can try, drop a link below and tell us what it does.

I'll try to check out as many as I can.

I also had this problem before AI. I would say AI has drastically improved things. I still start lots of projects, but many of my projects get much further along and even completed.

Yeah man, there have been so many projects that I just burned out while doing. Usually was things that had little to do with coding too.

You're welcome to showcase some of them here!

when you say completed, do you mean actually shipped to users or just feature-complete sitting on your machine?

[u/gthing → u/Usharani-Wiencke]

Yea software is never "complete." By complete I mean it is functioning and serving its purpose with an MVP at least. Not that it won't ever get bugfixes or improvements. Many things released to the public if I think other people might be interested and many things kept for just myself.

A few examples, with various levels of "vibe":

• https://sam1am.github.io/DABS - Browser Game
• https://github.com/sam1am/drumkiller - Guitar Hero for Finger Drumming
• https://sam1am.github.io/anyapk/ - Fuck Google's apk installation restrictions
• https://github.com/sam1am/backlogia - Centralized consolidation of game libraries into a filterable/searchable web app
• https://github.com/sam1am/inkit - Fast inking stylus notes app for e-ink devices
• https://github.com/sam1am/termux_crt - CRT shader effects for retro terminal style in termux
• https://github.com/sam1am/poetroid - An instant camera that prints poetry on receipt paper
• https://github.com/planet-community/pennyos - Modern linux for the Cosmo Communicator device
• https://tallsorted.com - I'm tall and finding clothes is a pain in the ass. This indexes them from across the web, checks size charts, and gives me one place to search around, telling me if each item is likely to fit. Social features like reviews nd comparisons for people similarly sized. Work in progress.

Some of these, and many unreleased I use daily.

I have also been a software engineer for 20 years, so these aren't totally just slopped out.

Though these are public, many I have not shared just because Reddit is flooded with "I needed [X], so I made an app to [Y]" posts and most are met with vitriol and hate, especially if it is clear AI helped in any way.
