The vibes are vibin'.

In one year, AI SDK soared from 446,012 to 3,209,817 weekly downloads:

Kilo Code is an open-source, model-agnostic AI code assistant with transparent pricing.

First launched 6 months ago and after 420,000+ downloads on @VS Code and @Cursor, the team is bringing it to the @JetBrains ecosystem (IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm...) and they will be live on @Product Hunt this Sunday, September 28.

With this whole AI trend, many tools are trying to be invisible: not apps you open, but helpers that quietly run in the background. They show up just enough interface: a chat box, a nudge, or an API call to deliver value, but otherwise stay out of sight.

With today s agent hype, this idea feels like it s accelerating. Agents promise to handle tasks across your apps without you lifting a finger.

I work at an early stage startup and I'd estimate 70-80% of our codebase is vibe coded (510k lines). To be clear, it's not 1 shot "build this feature." More like, "implement get_slim_documents for Jira in the exact same way we did it for the Confluence connector."
Comfort with AI coding tools is actually something we gauge during interviews/work trials. Looking at our peer companies, it's exactly the same.
My hypothesis/assertion is that companies founded ~2022+ are fundamentally intertwined with "vibe coding." In 5 years, programming will connote vibe coding more than it will connote non-AI assisted work.
Am I crazy? Pigeon-holed in the SF startup world? Naive? Would love to hear more thoughts/diverse perspectives on this.

As someone who's spent a lot of time in both content creation tools and educational content, this is a question I get asked all the time.

It's one of those questions that's neither simple nor complicated.

The trickiest part is that "good" doesn't have a universal answer. "Good" is super subjective. What one person thinks is great, another might find too basic, too difficult, or just plain boring. And honestly, people's judgment about content gets swayed by all sorts of things their environment, social circles, even current trends.

Hey Vibecoders

Do you use vue-i18n, JSON files, a CMS, or something more custom?

With @aymeric_pineau, we kept asking ourselves that question. We were looking for a simple, scalable, and developer-first solution for handling multilingual content in our projects, and couldn't find exactly what we needed. So we built our solution :@Intlayer.

So imo, one of the logical conclusions of AI automation is a universal basic income that fully meets people's needs (let's call that a "full UBI"). If one day, 99% of jobs as we know them were automated, at that point I think the vast majority of people would want a full UBI, which is much higher than what most countries offer today, if they have a UBI at all.

But what I'm wondering is: what is the tipping point? Clearly the current level of automation isn't sufficient to get everyone on board with UBI. But some people have predicted that 50% of jobs could be automated within 20 years: if 50% of jobs went away, would you want a full UBI? What about 70%?

Everyone says Validate before you build , but no one tells you what that actually means until you re deep in it.

Maybe you launched too soon, built too much before talking to anyone, or trusted feedback that sounded nice but meant nothing.
