I hear a lot of opinions—both positive and negative—about vibe coding. After 20 years of coding hard, I want to share my take on it.
Here are some of the most common concerns I’ve heard:

❌ "If you use vibe coding, your app will be insecure, poorly written, unoptimized, and unmaintainable."

I strongly disagree. If you can’t analyze AI-generated code, use it effectively, and guide the AI in the right direction, the problem isn’t the tool—it’s you. Let’s be honest: in the right hands, AI writes better code than many developers.

❌ You’ll spend more time debugging AI-generated code than writing it yourself.

Again, this is likely a matter of how you use it. Treat AI like a junior developer: give it small, well-defined tasks, break down complex problems, and provide guidance. You're the architect; AI is the tool. It can handle 80–90% of the work, but you still need to oversee complex logic and edge cases.

❌ Real developers don’t use AI; it makes you lazy and weakens your problem-solving skills.

Using AI doesn’t mean you’re not a real developer. Writing every line of code manually is not a badge of honor—it’s just inefficient. Great developers know how to leverage the best tools available. AI can accelerate development, allowing you to focus on architecture, problem-solving, and innovation.

❌ AI can’t replace deep domain knowledge.

True, but it doesn’t have to. AI is a productivity booster, not a replacement for expertise. It still requires a developer who understands the business logic, security concerns, performance trade-offs, and long-term maintainability.

❌ Vibe coding is just a fad.

People once said the same thing about IDEs, version control, and even high-level programming languages. Vibe coding isn’t about replacing developers—it’s about making them more efficient. The tools will only get better, and developers who learn to use them effectively will stay ahead.

🔥 So, is vibe coding the future?

I think it's already here. AI is rapidly changing the way we write software, and those who learn to work with it—not against it—will be the ones leading the future of development.
What’s your take? Have you tried vibe coding yet? 🚀

🚀 Proof That Vibe Coding Works

Just look at JustCMS—a fully distributed, AI-driven, headless CMS that’s 90% written by an AI agents under human guidance. It’s stable, scalable, and a real-world example of how AI can help developers build powerful software. The key isn’t replacing developers—it’s using AI to amplify what’s possible.
