I've had the opposite results. I used to "vibe code" in languages that I knew, so that I could review the code and, I assumed, contribute myself. I got good enough results that I started using AI to build tools in languages I had no prior knowledge of. I don't even look at the code any more. I'm getting incredible results. I've been a developer for 30+ years and never thought this would be possible. I keep making more and more ambitious projects and AI just keeps banging them out exactly how I envision them in my mind.

To be fair I don't think someone with less experience could get these results. I'm leveraging every thing I know about writing software, computer science, product development, team management, marketing, written communication, requirements gathering, architecture... I feel like vibe coding is pushing myself and AI to the limits, but the results are incredible.

I've got 20 years of experience, but w/e. What have you made?

I don't want to dox myself since I'm doing it outside my regular job for the most part, but frameworks, apps (on those frameworks), low level systems stuff, linux-y things, some P2P, lots of ai tools. One thing I find it excels at is web front-end (which is my least favorite thing to actually code), easily as good as any front-end dev I've ever worked with.
