I recently got back into indie making and built a Shopify app prototype by vibe coding with AI.
I started with a high-level goal, fed some context to the LLM, and iterated with AI-generated outputs. This wasn't just about speed—it's a different way of thinking about building products. See my post here: https://logicalicy.substack.com/p/i-built-a-whole-app-by-vibe-coding
Shortly after prototyping, I dove in deep and got the app production ready. It was a battle but I got my my first Shopify app approved 🙌 https://logicalicy.substack.com/p/back-in-the-fold-my-return-to-building
Look forward to sharing many more updates
