Vibe Scripter

1. A person who “codes” purely by vibe coding —copy-pasting snippets from AI tools, or drag-and-drop builders without any real understanding of programming fundamentals.

2. Someone who thinks being able to spin up a half-broken website with no security, no structure, and 100 console errors makes them a “software engineer.”

3. The spiritual cousin of a script kiddie, but with even less clue about what’s going on under the hood.
1.“Bro, my app doesn’t need authentication or error handling—it just works on my laptop. I’m basically a full-stack dev now.”
→ Classic vibe scripter energy.

2. “He built an entire e-commerce site by pasting ChatGPT output into Notepad and is now offering ‘enterprise solutions.’ Total vibe scripter.”

3. Andy straight up shipped a Google AI Studio site to production with zero code review, and now the client’s API key got jacked. Peak vibe scripter move.”

4.“Deploy first, think never — classic vibe scripter.”
