Okay I think I am kind of bored of vibe coding…
Just prompting really isn’t that interesting.
Need to think of ways to mix it up and maybe do more of it manually? Idk. I also don’t feel like I’m learning anything. 🤷♀️

Going live to keep vibe coding my Rails travel map app!
Going to attempt to undo all of the changes I made Saturday and focus on new features like travel notes and preferences (that can later be used for AI recommendations?)
Hang out! 👇

Alongside the Ruby 4.0 release last week, I published charm-ruby over Christmas, bringing @charm.land's excellent terminal UI libraries to Ruby.
A full TUI framework, reusable components, styled output, forms, markdown rendering, spinners, charts, and a lot more!

Little demo of my Rails travel map app so far… 👀
Vibe coded in ~8 hours while streaming.
All built in my browser with @github.com Codespaces, Copilot, using various models (mostly Claude Sonnet 4.5).
It’s my first app! Lots more to do. But what do you think?

Rails has given me a lot, and giving back through open source has always felt like the natural response. Looking forward to continuing the work. ❤️
