Welcome to Vibecodingwiki

VibeCodingwiki is the home of the VibeCoding ecosystem — a shared space for mapping the tools, workflows, culture, and ideas emerging around AI-assisted software creation. It brings together everything related to VibeCoding in one place: from foundational concepts and terminology to rapidly evolving platforms, best practices, and case studies.

The wiki serves as a neutral reference point for anyone working across AI-native development environments such as Cursor, Replit, Bolt, v0, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and the growing landscape of agentic tooling. Instead of teaching a single method, it documents how people build with conversational coding, rapid prototyping, iterative feedback loops, and model-driven development.

VibeCodingwiki exists to track a fast-moving field — capturing experiments, production lessons, cultural shifts, and the emerging norms of building software through dialogue rather than manual implementation. Whether you're exploring, researching, or shipping with AI-first workflows, this is the place where the movement is recorded, discussed, and continuously refined.

Origins

Andrej Karpathy's February 2025 introduction of "vibe coding" as LLM-driven development through natural language ("see stuff, say stuff, run stuff"), rapid adoption (25% of Y Combinator Winter 2025 batch with 95% AI-generated code), and subsequent critiques from Gary Marcus and Simon Willison warning of accountability and security risks.

Timeline

Chronicles how "vibe coding" spread from Karpathy's February 2025 X post through media coverage, Y Combinator adoption metrics, and subsequent scrutiny from critics warning of technical debt.

Tools

AI coding platforms (Lovable, Bolt, Cursor, Replit), debugging aids (CodeRabbit, VibeCodeFixers), and educational resources that support conversational AI-assisted development workflows.

Companies

Platform leaders (Lovable unicorn at $1.8B, Bolt with largest hackathon), AI-first IDEs (Replit Agents, Cursor with $2.3B funding), and infrastructure providers (Vercel v0, Netlify, CodeRabbit, Supabase, Clerk).

Hackathons

Major competitions including Bolt's World's Largest Hackathon ($1M prize, 100K participants), TanStack Start Hackathon ($640K prizes where VibeCodingWiki was created), and the 80% AI code rule game jams.

Tutorials

Getting started with Google Cloud guides and YouTube challenges, mastering prompting patterns and cheat sheets, learning platform-specific tools (Replit AI, Lovable Academy, Bolt), and advanced security training from Kaspersky/IBM.

Best practices

Security hygiene (never expose API keys, use Clerk/Better Auth, validate inputs), spec-driven development with GitHub Spec Kit, test-driven development with CI, and clear incremental prompting with human oversight.
