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)

We built our entire website in @V0.dev for Flyweel, would love any feedback.
Maintenance and updates without burning through credits became tricky. Have started using @Cursor more and love the new release of @Dyad!
minimalist phone: creating folders
@flyweel_turner What will Flyweel be capable of? Track your finances? I would say that this is a more mobile app solution.
My first "vibecoding" was actually upgrading my trading system.
I had a quantitative trading bot for A-shares (Chinese stock market) that I'd built the traditional way. I wanted to refactor it from procedural code to a state machine architecture — cleaner logic for handling market conditions.
But back then it was the ancient era of AI coding: copy code → paste into ChatGPT → copy the response → paste back into VS Code → run it → hit a bug → copy the error → paste it back into ChatGPT → repeat. Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V was my most-used shortcut.
Then came Cursor, now Claude Code — and I grew up from a quant trader to an AI builder. I built two websites in one weekend, and now I'm learning SEO through vibecoding. Turns out "vibe-SEOing" is a thing too.
