Vibe Coding Tools
Video 1 tools mentioned: Upwork: The primary platform mentioned for finding clients and projects that can be fulfilled using vibe coding techniques. It's where freelancers sell AI services and find business problems/SaaS ideas. V0 (v0.dev): An AI-powered tool by Vercel shown generating UI components and app screens based on prompts. Used for the frontend/UI generation aspect of vibe coding. Replit (specifically Replit V2 and its AI Agent): The core development environment and platform highlighted. Billy Howell used it to build and sell apps. Replit's AI Agent (powered by models like Claude 3.5 Sonnet) is used for generating code, scaffolding applications, and iterating based on prompts and requirements (like the PRD). ChatGPT: Used as an AI assistant for planning, specifically shown formatting an Upwork job description into a Product Requirements Document (PRD) to feed into Replit's AI. Shadcn/ui: A UI component library mentioned as being used by the AI (V0/Replit) to build clean and professional-looking interfaces. Loom: Used for creating video demonstrations of the prototypes built (Billy sent a Loom video to a potential client). Airtable: Mentioned both as a technology clients might want work done on (creating Airtable bases/automations) and as a tool that could potentially be replaced by a custom app built via vibe coding. Also mentioned as a potential database backend. PostgreSQL: Mentioned as a database option for integration for persistent storage within the generated app. Calendly / Google Calendar: Mentioned as scheduling tools that might require API integration within the generated apps. DocuSign: Mentioned for potential integration for liability forms/eSignatures. Tally / Google Forms / Typeform: Mentioned as form builders that might be part of the workflow being automated or replaced. Zapier / Make.com / n8n / Microsoft Power Automate: Mentioned as automation platforms clients might be using or requesting integrations with. Stripe / Xero: Mentioned for invoicing and payments integration. Replit Bounties: Mentioned as a way to hire developers (using Replit's "Cycles" currency) to help fix bugs, build features, or troubleshoot issues with vibe-coded apps on Replit. GitHub: Mentioned as a place to push the code generated by Replit for version control or further development/deployment elsewhere.
