Vibe Coding: Revolutionizing Software Development Through AI Intuition
How AI is changing the way we build software, from prototypes to production.
Executive Summary Vibe coding represents a paradigm shift in software engineering, where developers leverage large language models (LLMs) to generate code via natural language prompts, bypassing traditional manual writing and rigorous code review. Coined by AI pioneer Andrej Karpathy in early 2025, this approach prioritizes rapid iteration, prototyping, and outcome validation over syntactic perfection, enabling non-technical users—termed “citizen developers”—to build functional applications. For companies, vibe coding accelerates time-to-market by 50-70% for prototypes and internal tools, reduces dependency on specialized engineering talent, and fosters cross-functional collaboration, though it introduces risks in scalability, security, and maintainability for production systems. Key tools like...
