The term vibecoding<\/strong> has been making waves lately, especially in AI and tech circles. For some, it\u2019s just another buzzword; for others, it\u2019s a completely new way of working. I discovered it at the beginning of the year while traveling through Thailand. I had one specific problem to solve. Fast forward to today, and I have hundreds of hours of vibecoding under my belt, several shipped apps, websites, and most importantly\u2014a completely different mindset about what I can build entirely on my own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, what exactly did I achieve from the other side of the world in just two months?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vibe\u2026 what? It All Started with a Problem<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the beginning, there was no grand vision of me pumping out functional apps from the beach in a matter of hours. It started with a simple, annoying problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For our Meet&Deal<\/strong> project, we needed a way to bulk-remove backgrounds from photos of people attending our events. Graphic designers were quoting absurd prices for this routine task, and I started getting frustrated that I had to keep paying someone for something so trivial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There had to be a way to do it quickly, cheaply, and ideally, automatically. So, I decided to try building my own app for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were in Thailand at the time. I had free time, a solid internet connection, and AI tools. Within a few days, I realized two major things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. It\u2019s actually possible.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Once you start, a whole new world of opportunities opens up.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    From that moment on, I went all in on vibecoding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Hundreds of Hours and Multiple Projects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Over the last two months, I\u2019ve „vibecoded“ for hundreds of hours. The result isn’t just one experimental project, but several fully functional assets that, until recently, would have required weeks of developer time and budgets in the tens of thousands of crowns (and I\u2019m probably underestimating that).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The Transformation of My Personal Blog<\/strong> My website andrekohout.cz<\/em> went through a massive overhaul. I made it completely bilingual, which included translating and indexing over 120 blog articles. The whole process took a few hours of my time and a couple of dollars in AI API calls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Redesigning NetworkingAkce.cz on a Dime<\/strong> My other project, NetworkingAkce.cz<\/em>, has a similar story. The original version of this site cost roughly 40,000 CZK to build. Thanks to vibecoding, I managed to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
