A senior dev showing you how to build real software with AI. Claude Code, Cursor, TypeScript, Python, automations—if it ships, I'll show you how.

@webdeveloper_NG Came to the comments to say my banking app, but then saw that almost everyone said that...
I bet devs in the finance industry still develop on windows.

Built my first open source MCP this week.
Wraps your dev commands so Claude can see your terminal output. No more screenshots. No more copy-paste.
vibewatch npm run dev
Works with Cursor and Claude Desktop.

@thepatwalls Interesting perspective. Never thought of it like that.

If I was starting over from scratch, I would still pick RUBY ON RAILS.
Why? Because it's opinionated:
- LLMs know best practices, so it's less likely to hallucinate.
- If you need some help from a "real coder", a Rails dev can come in quickly and with minimal cost.
- ActiveRecord is a gift from god. I know stuff like Next.js never really figured it out.

@thepatwalls curious about rails, would you keep it if you were starting over ?

just discovered my best friend has been vibe coding for the last 2 years
i was horrified
he’s been shipping full products with no specs, no diagrams, no architecture reviews, just “trying things until it feels right”
i invited him over for an intervention
we opened his metrics
apps in production: 3
paying customers: 1,200
monthly downtime: 0 minutes
it was worse than i imagined
millions of lines of undocumented intuition, completely non-compliant with any serious engineering framework
i did the only thing a real friend could do
we spent the entire weekend rebuilding his workflow
introduced jira, quarterly architecture councils, rfc templates, raci matrices and a strict “no code without diagram” policy
his shipping pace collapsed overnight
but now every button change requires a 9-page design doc, a risk analysis and a future scalability assessment for when he “hits 10 million users”
revenue growth stalled
but his confluence space has never looked more enterprise-ready
i’ve never been more proud of him
he’s no longer some chaotic vibe coder
he’s finally a blocked, over-process senior engineer
