Vibe Coding: How Google's Anti-Gravity Changed the Way I Build Software in React-Native

Now a days, everyone is doing AI-assisted coding — and so do I.

A normal day in my life starts with scrolling through my phone after waking up early in the morning. One such day, I came across an amazing developer tool by Google DeepMind.

Earlier, on November 18, 2025, Google launched Antigravity — an AI-powered, agentic development platform and IDE. This tool completely changed the way I code and helped transform my workflow.

Gone are the days when, for even a minimal task, I had to jump between tools, explain context again and again, and break my flow.

Now, Antigravity has become a single solution for most of my development tasks. Its Agent Manager has significantly reduced my mental overhead by handling complexity in a structured and predictable way.

Just last week, I was working on deploying my React Native app to the Google Play Store. A few cosmetic changes were required before submission. Instead of manually hunting through components and styles, I headed straight to the Agent Manager and prompted it to take care of the task.

And guess what — the magician started showing its magic ✨

What I really love about this tool is its organized and transparent planning approach. In most cases (though not always), it generates the following three artifacts:

Tasks

A clear to-do list that helps track completed, ongoing, and upcoming work.

Implementation Plan

A detailed explanation of how a task will be implemented. This step is especially powerful because the IDE asks for developer approval before proceeding, keeping humans in control.

Walkthrough

A review report summarizing the changes made across the codebase, making it easy to understand what actually happened.

This structured flow keeps me focused on what I want to build, instead of worrying about how every small piece fits together.


Final Thoughts

The real power of AI isn’t automation — it’s attention.

Antigravity didn’t replace my thinking; it removed the friction around it. When tools respect your flow, coding stops feeling like work and starts feeling like Vibe Coding.
