Most vibe coders quit in the first 30 days.
They think AI is magic. Prompt an app, ship it, make money.
Then a database migration breaks. An API schema changes. The build fails.
An app developer in London just dropped the ACTUAL vibe coding playbook that beginners are missing:
→ Find a problem worth solving, not a solution looking for a problem → Build ONE halo feature people will talk about, not 50 features no one asked for → Start with an MVP that works, ship it fast → Test the prototype on your phone immediately after the first build → Give it to friends and watch HOW they use it before adding anything → Learn to debug what the AI spits out when migrations fail → Use tools like Milq to go from prompt to working app → Submit to TestFlight before App Store launch
Vibe coding isn’t a magic trick.
Knowing how to debug what AI builds is the new senior dev skill.
If you can’t fix what breaks, you’re not building apps.
You’re just generating code.
