The Startup Ideas Podcast

The best businesses are built at the intersection of emerging technology, community, and real human needs.

Back to Frameworks

Vibe Coding Framework

Reusability

A development approach using AI models to generate complete applications from natural language descriptions and visual inputs, emphasizing speed and iteration over traditional coding

How It Works

Works by translating high-level intent into functional code through large language models trained on code patterns, allowing non-technical users to build software

Components

1

Start with ambitious prompts rather than simple requests

2

Use multimodal inputs (text + screenshots + voice)

3

Iterate through 'add 5 features' prompts for ideation

4

Debug with annotation tools when outputs fail

5

Deploy and share for immediate feedback loops

When to Use

Ideal for rapid prototyping, MVP development, competitive analysis through UI cloning, and real-time demonstration in business contexts

When Not to Use

Avoid for production-critical systems requiring custom optimization, complex backend integrations, or when you need full control over code architecture

Anti-Patterns to Avoid

Building only landing pages instead of functional appsBeing too conservative with feature requestsGiving up after first failure instead of reprompting

Example

A clothing brand wants virtual try-on features. During a customer call, you prompt 'build virtual try-on and AI mood boarding for fashion retail' and demonstrate the working app live, closing the deal through the wow factor
