Vibe Coding
Building software by describing intent in natural language and letting AI generate the code.
/ quick answer
Vibe Coding is a development style where a person describes what they want in plain language and an AI agent writes, edits, and runs the code. The human steers direction, reviews output, and iterates — instead of typing syntax line by line. It collapses the gap between idea and working product.
