I like programming. It's fun, and sometimes it even requires creativity. There are plenty of times when it's not that fun, and doesn't require any creativity (because whatever it is has been done by someone else a thousand times over), and you just want a result. Vibecoding is great for _that_ stuff (think little throw-away scripts, shell one liners, tool plugins, etc)

I generally don't get great results from LLM code because most of my work is in C++ (which I'm guessing is underrepresented in the training data?), but when I point it towards some well-worn javascript thing I've had real successes! Most recent example is this little chrome plugin I had it whip up in one shot (https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/favicon-tab-grouper...) because I couldn't find the exact functionality I needed in other plugins.

Works perfectly for my needs, took less than five minutes to spin up, and I use it all the time. If you're looking to get started with vibecoding stuff, try making plugins that provide niche functionality for your hyper-specific workflows.
