Vibe coding skill is not prompt tricks — it is taste, judgment and system thinking. How to train the abilities that decide what AI software is worth.
How I ship every product from a single React codebase with Capacitor — the setup, the real platform quirks, and why this multiplies what vibe coding gets you.
How I build browser and mobile games with React Three Fiber, Rapier and AI agents — what AI generates brilliantly, where it fails, and why game feel stays human.
Where vibe coding bites: confident wrong code, local solutions, complexity hidden behind pretty UI, security blind spots — and the habits that catch each.
My five-step vibe coding loop in detail: context discipline, prompt shapes, when to interrupt an agent, and the cleanup rhythm that keeps a codebase sane.
Real answers from shipped products: games with physics, SaaS with real users, AI pipelines reading a million articles a day — and the honest ceiling.
