Vibe coding

What is Vibe coding?

Vibe coding is building software by describing what you want in natural language and letting an AI model write the code, instead of typing every line yourself.

The term was popularized in early 2025 and quickly became shorthand for AI-driven development where the human guides intent and the model produces the code.

Its main risk is shipping code that was never reviewed. Tools like Korden keep the speed of vibe coding while adding a review gate — every change becomes a pull request you approve and merge.
