I have come across several posts here and other SM platforms about how vibe coding has changed the entire software development landscape and how “at the AI age we don’t need anymore software developers because AI can handle it all” But c’mon guys, let’s be realistic; we’ve actually never been in need of real developers than we’re now. You just can’t expect any karen out here to build a great product just because they had an idea and AI helped them build it without any background or any understanding of the technical aspects of the product! I have tried to vibe code some of my startup projects and I have always came up with one conclusion; a qualified developer should review this whole code, manage it and prompt AI correctly to produce what is actually necessary. Being the idea guy, I will just build an app that will use mock execution and think it’s useful, until it comes to deployment and that’s when I understand the need for someone who actually knows what should be done, how and when and where. To be honest, vibe coding is a tool for software developers to make their work waay easier than it previously was. Also, it makes the idea guy build a mock version of their vision, and then when they want the real thing, only a real developer will be able to handle it. So if you’re a software developer or engineer out here thinking you’re doomed, be afraid not. Just connect with the right people, especially idealists who want real products, and showcase your skills. With someone who recognizes your value, you will have a very easy job. Also, if you’re an idea person,stop being hard-headed about developing good products thinking you and your hallucinatory chatbot can do it, unless you want something that break every now and then or something that works only at the mock version level. Get a technical cofounder and start working together. If you’re both, then build great products because your execution has never been made easier through automation. submitted by /u/Original_Messenger
