I just shipped my first production-level app with a team of Claude agents in the cloud and it took me exactly 2 months from idea to launch! Most of that time was spent trial-and-error figuring out the right roles for each agent and dialing in handoffs so things actually worked in a real production setting.
Curious to hear from others:
- How long did it take you to get your first production-ready (not demo!) vibecoding or Claude Code agent project finished?
- What were the biggest slowdowns, unexpected obstacles, or surprising time-savers along the way?
I've been thinking about something. We've gotten really good at using AI to generate working code, but we're not treating it like production code in terms of documentation.
Traditional developers spend significant time documenting their code because they know future them (or their teammates) will need to understand, modify, or debug it later. But with AI-generated code, we often just copy-paste and move on.
I'm spending $200/month on Claude Code. Normal, or am I nuts? How much are you really spending? What tool is worth every penny, and what's way overrated?
Poll: How much are you spending per month on vibe coding tools? Options: $0 $50, $51 $100, $101 $200, $201+
I just read that Poland wants to launch a pilot project of a 4-day work week from January 2026 (although a 4-hour work week would sound better).
I want to ask if any of you in your company have tried this concept of a shorter work week, and how it has affected the results of your employees and the company?
I've been pretty impressed at the amount of products people (including myself) have been able to create which got me curious... do vibe coders or AI-primary builders have a place in a company or team? My thinking is the more technically adept would work on the core-focus while vibecoders can assist with other tasks that shouldn't be the main devs focus...like a potential feature add, minor changes, or even exploring different ways of modifying the existing product. I'm curious what you all think, would you hire a vibe coder?

AI coding tools seem to come in two main flavors: IDE-based, like @Cursor and @GitHub Copilot, and terminal-based setups, like using @Claude Code to generate commands, scripts, or entire files. Both have their fans, but which one actually helps you move faster?
Curious what flow people are sticking with long term, and where you see the most gains (or frustrations).

I might be missing some but I've been pretty much in love with @Lovable, @Cursor, @bolt.new and have been trying to use @Replit more and I honestly haven't touched @BASE44 too much but have heard good things. @chrismessina has nudged me to use @Windsurf for whenever I build another Raycast Extension! Currently I use: - @bolt.new / @Lovable - @Cursor - @Warp Curious what everyone thinks is the top one so far!
On Product Hunt, I can see many people launching their products using "vibe-coding tools" like @Lovable , @bolt.new , or@Replit
I reckon many people who created something with them are usually developers who didn't have enough time for building a side idea before, but with AI, they could make it happen.
