Vibe Code Basics teaches you to plan, prompt, debug and ship software with AI coding agents. No hype, just practical guides that stay current as the tools change.
The learning path
Fresh off the press
Which AI model should you code with in late 2026? We compare Claude Opus 5.5, Fable 5.1, GPT-6 Astra, GPT-6.1 Sol, GPT-6 Luna and Gemini 4 Argon on price, coding strength and availability, with clear picks for every budget.
Everything OpenAI announced at DevDay 2026 and what it means for vibe coders: Dots, GPT-6.1 Sol, Codex Cloud, Code Review for GitHub and GitLab, the Agents API, Ultrafast mode, the $500 Pro tier, and Sign in with ChatGPT.
Security researchers disclosed serious flaws in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot and other AI coding agents. Here's what GitSpawn, Plugin4Shell and PixelLeak are, who was affected, and a practical checklist to keep your machine and code safe.
Claude Code now supports mods: small TypeScript modules that change how the agent behaves, block risky commands, redact secrets and customize the interface. Learn how mods work, how to install them safely, and how to write your first one.
Google DeepMind's Gemini 4 Argon is built for long-horizon coding and cyber defense, with a 1M-token output limit. Here's what it can do, its pricing, how the staged rollout works, and how it compares to GPT-6 Astra and Claude Opus 5.5.
GPT-6 Sol and GPT-6 Luna made capable AI dramatically cheaper. Compare pricing, coding benchmarks, context windows and best uses, plus what changed in GPT-6.1 Sol, and how to save money by routing tasks between models.

Vibe coding is building software by describing what you want in plain language and letting an AI coding agent write, run and fix the code. The term was coined by Andrej Karpathy in February 2025. You steer, review and test; the AI does most of the typing.
No, you can build working prototypes with zero experience using app builders like Lovable or Bolt. But a little knowledge of Git, how web apps are structured and basic security goes a long way once you want to ship something real to users.
It depends on how you work. Claude Code and OpenAI Codex lead for agentic, terminal-first work; Cursor is the most popular AI IDE; GitHub Copilot is the easiest add-on for existing editors; and Lovable, Bolt, v0 and Replit suit non-coders who want a hosted app builder.
Only after review. AI agents regularly produce code with missing authorization checks, exposed secrets and outdated dependencies. Run through a security checklist, add tests, and never deploy code you have not at least read and run.
