On June 13 swyx said he's building a new vibecoding platform, complaining that current tools demand 'way too much webmaster infra' to go from idea to running app. The move is notable given he publicly tombstoned 'RIP Vibe Coding (Feb–Oct 2025)' last fall as engineers revolted against insecure AI prototypes — now he's betting the workflow needs better rails, not burial. Signals the AI-engineer consensus shifting from 'is vibe coding legitimate' to 'who owns the production-grade harness for it.'
