You don’t need to know how to write code to vibe code

But if you can’t interpret code, you're stumbling in the dark

Imagine being in a country where you don’t speak or understand the language

You try ordering a dish with specific dietary restrictions using only hand gestures

That’s vibe coding without understanding LLM outputs

Now imagine you vaguely understand the waiter’s words

You’re not fluent, but your odds of success improve significantly

If you can’t interpret LLM-generated code, ask it to explain itself:

- Why it made specific decisions
- How errors happened
- What its outputs mean

Example prompt:

"Check the console for errors, explain the issue, why it happened, & how your solution works. Teach me to spot similar problems in the future. Suggest fixes & help me to troubleshoot independently."

LLMs don’t just write code, they can also explain it

Ask the right questions & you’ll notice the patterns

Soon, you won’t just vibe code

You’ll actually get it
