UX designers, I just vibe-coded a full https://t.co/7C5wKJdl4a homepage — and I never even touched Figma.
Yup, not once.
Instead, I used a trio of tools to compare results:
Lovable, Bolt, and my own Frankenstack — Windusrf + Claude Sonnet.
The result? Ridiculously fast. And fun to play with.
But here’s the twist: vibe coding comes with its own constraints.
Tools like Lovable are engineered for dopamine. You’ll get to the “WOW!” moment quickly. But after that high? The limitations hit hard.
You can’t tweak microinteractions. You can’t finesse the details. You’re locked into a magic box.
On the other hand, developer-led environments are messy. Slower. Less “magical.” But infinitely more customizable.
You can stitch inspirations together. Swap libraries. Adjust flows. And coax your AI to interpret your references.
Is it perfect? Not at all.
Is it flexible enough for viral-level UX? You bet.
⚡ Vibe coding is a fun way to ideate. But if you’re serious about shipping delightful, layered UX — you’ll still need to wrestle with the chaos.
P.S. We ship MVPs a lot faster for our clients by vibe-coding them into existence. Clients love it because, finally, they’ve found a product studio that speaks their language. What do they want? To be in the market today! Given our deep experience in Figma and knowing how to use the vibe-coding platforms, we can ship an app with viral UX without compromising on the nuances.

@PabloFuente@gregisenberg@mvanhorn yes soon. I made it operational and turned into a telegram bot. now you can do a lot. @mvanhorn the proxy chatgpt is unecessary. just use the direct reddit api works much better and it's for free.
I just went to sleep and RALPH did deliver 70% of tickets. Just crazy. Claude code is the future of work. I can see companies prefer to hire someone master Claude code over a cto with years of experience.
Took me 3 days fromst start to finish to complete 2100 lines of PRD, https://t.co/GwqV6bYYY1 and https://t.co/IIgdT0vsmg. Now my ralph loop created with over 100 tickets. Ready to run it overnight and expect to play around with with my app tomorrow morning. claude code counting on you.
Claude Code skip your skill if it sees the prompt asks for something straightforward. It made me pissed but now thinking about it it makes sense. I would do the same think. I don't need my years of financial expertise for a simple algebra. don't try to hack it that it always trigger your pre-defined skill. Just create a better prompt.
@udaysy Uday I have different projects like ops department, marketing department, website design department, following your approach more or less. but the information is siloed and other departments can't use it. any experience with this?
Claude code skills at the user level, interlinked together, are the future of work. Loop them into RALPH, and now we’re talking full-flavour Iranian cuisine.
A founder came to me with a €420K proposal from another vendor. 12-month roadmap. We shipped the same scope for €75K in 90 days.
When I looked at the scope for the first time, told them: "You're paying for 9 months of work you'll throw away."
Here's what they were charging you for that you never needed.
👉 Most dev agencies sell you setup. OAuth. User roles. Component libraries. Data pipelines. They scope it. Bill it. Build it from scratch. Every single time.
We boilerplated it.
When you look at a SaaS vertical, 70% of the infrastructure is identical. Authentication. Permissions. Admin panels. Notification systems. Why would we charge you to rebuild plumbing?
That's the first unlock.
👉 The second is harder to swallow.
We could've built the founder's full vision. Every feature on the roadmap. Every "nice to have" stakeholders added in meetings.
We didn't.
We asked different questions:
+ What unlocks the operational bottleneck right now?
+ What gets you to the next funding round?
+ What lets you scale users without scaling headcount?
When you look at development through that lens, 80% of what you thought you needed becomes noise. We ended up building internal tooling with a thin client-facing layer. That's it.
Ruthless omission isn't cutting corners. It's refusing to build things that won't move the needle for another 6 months.
👉 Third: we mapped the user journey and business model before touching code.
Every founder says they know this cold. Every time we dissect it together, we find different insights.
Not because they're wrong. Because they're too close. We map it to prioritize, not to create another deck to store in google drive.
A 3-day user journey and a 12-month user journey require completely different products. Founders copy Notion and Linear because they're cool. Context be damned.
👉 Fourth: AI where it actually matters.
Not "sprinkle some ChatGPT on it." RAG architecture. MCPs. Systems that ingest thousands of documents and retrieve exactly what you need, when you need it.
The founder now runs reports that used to take a week. Takes an hour.
💎 That's not a feature. That's buying back 40 hours a week. Permanently
P.S. If you've got a proposal sitting on your desk with a six-figure number and a 9-month timeline, send it to me. I'll tell you what you actually need to ship in 90 days.
I tested Gemini 3 at 2am last night. By 3am, I forgot I was supposed to sleep.
Most LLMs understand prompts. Gemini 3 understands creative intent. The gap between those two things is massive.
I fed it a creative brief. The kind that usually takes one hour of back and forth with any model. It nailed the tone, the structure, the nuance on the first passes.
My theory: Google trained this on a mountain of YouTube content. Not just transcripts. Context. Emotion. How humans actually communicate when they're not writing for algorithms.
Claude is powerful. But for understanding creative briefs, vocabulary richness, and capturing tone? Gemini 3 is far better. Not even close.
This was one hour of exploration. Imagine what's possible with a week of focused work.
If you're thinking about rebranding or rebuilding your website, you can't ignore gemini 3 and Nano Banana.
P.S. We've been pairing Gemini 3 with our design system to ship website copy and landing pages in days, not weeks. If you want to see what's now possible for your next rebrand, book a fit call.
