The Era of Ai - Introduction To Vibe Coding - chapter - 1

✨ Episode 1: The First Spark

"When you think, you can bring.

When you dream, you can build.

When you know, you can go beyond."


Every journey begins with a first time.

Every line of code, every brush of art, every emotion, every spark — starts there.

Before we officially introduce Vibe Coding,

I want to take a moment…

To share a feeling.

That first feeling I had when I met it.


It began not with a bang, but with a whisper.

I opened Replit — a cloud IDE — just exploring.

Typed a word…

Pressed enter…

And something magical happened.

It autocompleted my thought.

As if the machine understood me.

As if I wasn’t alone in the act of creation.

That moment wasn’t just “wow.”

It was wonder.

Then slowly… the wonder turned into worry.

What is our future —

As artists?

As programmers?

As builders of soul and syntax?

That spark led me to question everything.

And that questioning led to the birth of this entire series.

We’ll explore these thoughts in depth in Volume 3,

Where we ask: What does it mean to create in the era of AI?


But for now —

Let’s hold on to the spark.

To the first time feeling.

To that sense of possibility, fear, and fire.


This is the beginning.

Of Vibe Coding.

Of a new chapter.

Of a quiet revolution — where art meets logic,

And emotion becomes syntax.


Till next time,

Take care.

And keep feeling the spark.

That first spark you described really hit home for me, I remember feeling the exact mix of awe and a bit of worry the first time AI completed my thought in code.
Have you found that sense of wonder still comes back, or does it fade with time?

Everything in start gives thrill and later fade with time. However, for me it still gives thrill that what if this code won't work.
What about you?
