I think "vibe coding" will not replace developers in the short term, but it will be the strongest competition for such simple systems. I asked a few LLMs to make apps like these (plain HTML with embedded JS), and they got it right after a few edits. They are also visually more appealing [1].

You are right. They are the natural opponents of vibe coding. vibe coding is from a funny X post; this is the OG purpose.

I am vibe coding a hobby project to find out what's the state of things. I've found that every few hours I get stuck on an issue that the LLM can't solve and a user with no programming experience would have little hope to crack it either. I suppose this issue might depend on technology and scope of the project.

It's got a bug, if you enter a non-integer like 3 + 2 = 5.1 then it marks that as correct

Whats your simple system stack, preferably self hostable? I may choose Vue, need auth, a multiplayer offline DB, static hosting, file hosting and preferably filter rows by users (dont allow me to see others data if I fiddle with the api).

  Vibe coding seems to be synonymous with "sort of works, bunch of bugs"

    If you can get over the critical errors. That's the showstopper for most non-programmers. Perhaps not as much for the so-called "power users" who can hack together some Excel VBA, but even then there's a lot of setup to get simple projects rolling. Down to the little things like knowing that a .js file is a JavaScript file (and what that means). It's obvious to us, but definitely not to the average person, unless they're willing to invest significant time into it - which most aren't.

I would change the ? to a blank or underscore
