What was the very first project you vibecoded with AI?
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.
I am not very technical (know some coding/programming basics), but without the help of a tutorial or ChatGPT, I would hardly build a whole project.
Question not only for developers (but also tech newbies):
What was THE FIRST THING YOU VIBECODED?
Feel free to share the link or the picture
What tool did you use?
What was the most difficult part?
Did you earn any money with that?
Here is mine:
– It was supposed to be a directory of Bluesky tools– The most difficult parts were to define something + It also rewrote good parts of the code, so it was kind of a mess for me.
– I haven't earned any money because I haven't published the project. (I abandoned it. :D)

My first vibecoding project was running a Café Simulator. ☕
Inspired by my work in BI and planning software, I wanted to make accounting and finance concepts more fun to learn. Players run a coffee business, generate realistic operational and financial data, and can later analyse it in BI tools. The hardest part was balancing gameplay with realistic business logic rather than the coding itself.
Built with AI-assisted development tools, @Lovable , earned $0 so far 😄, but it taught me a lot about product design, gamification, and how quickly ideas can become reality today.
