Hello, my name is Greg.
About six months ago I started using AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Claude at work for small tasks — proofreading emails, summarizing meeting notes, that kind of thing. But also some technical stuff too. One thing that really came in handy was analyzing packet captures from Wireshark. I work with VoIP phone systems, and when things go wrong, feeding a PCAP file into an AI chatbot speeds up the troubleshooting process dramatically.
Before long I was asking AI to write code. First simple HTML pages, then Python, then C#. I was amazed by the results. These weren't big projects — just small experiments — but they came to life in minutes instead of days.
I found out there was already a term for this: vibe coding. Perfect, I thought. I made project after project and wanted to share the excitement with other people who were surely doing the same thing. I created a free learning website, published a book on Kindle Unlimited, and went looking for a community. I landed on Reddit.
There were already vibe coding subreddits. I thought — this is great, I've found my people.
