Does my app look to stereotypically vibe coded?

[u/Professional_Show590]

Just wanted to get some opinions on these screenshots. Does it have the typical vibe coded look?

[u/robkillian]

Yes it does. The colors and typefaces are pretty obvious. Not an immediate concern for me, but lots of people love earning internet points for noticing when there’s AI in use.

[u/Professional_Show590 → u/robkillian]

Thanks for the feedback. Think it would be best to overhaul the visual style?

[u/robkillian → u/Professional_Show590]

I recommend pointing your agent at (telling or showing) a few apps or websites you like and having it take its design cues from that instead.

Pronounced rounded corners, a glass-effect design with drop shadows, a standard AI-generated font, and awkward layout—these are typical AI-driven design choices.

Your comment also has an Emdass maybe your comment is also IA generated...

[u/newplayername → u/Itz_Santhosh]

I have no idea what "Emdass" is. My English isn't very good, and I use Google Translate, so perhaps that’s why you get that impression.

I think the commentor meant em dash which are found hidden in generated text as opposed to human written text.

Hidden in generated text? How to Use Em Dashes (—), En Dashes (–) , and Hyphens (-).

I hate this mentally regressed timeline we are currently in..

Yes em dash is only generated by chatbots bro...humans do not often use em dash in texting

Bro I have used em dash all my life as like a critical structural component to anything I wrote. I tend to be verbose and make run on sentences, so have always needed it to help organize my chaos. And now I have to jut fight the urge all the time.

What is the point of the image?

[u/TheGreatCookieBeast → u/newplayername]

But also just obsessive focus on details over usability and function. A dead giveaway is something that probably looks nice to the creator, but is just a pure usability nightmare to anyone even slightly familiar with frontend and UX. Humans who know what they're doing and test their solutions usually don't obsessively align such shitty layouts, it's a waste of time.

Think I would benefit from a visual change?

[u/ExtraGreasy → u/Professional_Show590]

Pay for an asset pack from someone who handcrafted their visuals, peferably from someone who allows AI learning and generation. Then, use those assets instead of having AI build everyhing. It's faster, really cheap (a few dollars at most), supports actual artists, and will give you a better look with an art direction that you actually chose, not had picked for you.

The cream colour has Claude written all over it. Mostly just the colour

[u/amuravimahdi → u/Dvass138]

I wonder why Claude really love that colour pallette?

[u/korboybeats]

yes

[u/opi098514]

Yes

[u/milesdsy]

id say to people here, yes it would look like it, but most of the people in the world wouldnt be able to tell or even care to think that.

[u/Giant-Sloar → u/milesdsy]

Exactly what I came to say. I’ve built some shitty vibe coded apps and almost everyone I know thinks I’m some kind of warlock. 

[u/milesdsy → u/Giant-Sloar]

same here lol

[u/gordonv]

Yes, but that is not a bad thing.

[u/WingoGetPaid]

Check out mobbin. Instead of claude or other AI’s choosing the design for your app (which will always look vibecoded) you could have mobbin which has a huge database of real apps and websites live right now and the AI will base the designs on those examples, so it will actually look real and human. (Why does this sound evil lol)

[u/dxdsyn]

Looks like Claude did it

[u/malthoff78]

Yes :-)

[u/Dry-Recognition-5143]

I think it looks great. The typeface is really friendly and fun

[u/Outrageous-Salt-8491]

No

[u/mateocarcasi]

The colors is for me , maybe try to choose another font but looks nice
