Last week, we broke down what vibe coding is. This week, we break down the only question anyone actually cares about: “Okay… so what tool do I use?”
The vibe coding ecosystem has gone crazy in the last 12 months, and the amount of choice is overwhelming.
But here’s the real ones know: The tool matters way less than your structure....And that’s what this episode is really about. In this episode, we take you through a practical roadmap for building real software with AI, without sinking your project.
We walk through the full stack of vibe coding tools, when to use IDE-based systems vs no-code platforms, why Claude Code is becoming the power-user favorite, and how product managers, designers, and marketers are shipping functioning apps in days.
Plus: OpenAI hits a “code red,” Google catches up at an alarming pace, and Amazon face-plants with one of the worst AI dubs we’ve ever heard.
