While the aspect of vibe coding itself is not bad, it poses a new threat to the developers; LLMs are creating more brain-dead developers than competent ones.

As we know, the software development sector keeps evolving, new features and ways to do things will get rolled out soon, and the number of competent developers will keep declining. The muscle memory of writing the same method over and over will fade away, leaving developers blank. To push the damage further, LLMs or simply AI are slowly killing how we used to do our research in blogs, exchanges, and forums. While doing research, one would learn much more than they were really searching for. This improved one's knowledge base.
This has forced me to go back to basics, only using AI on the front-end, as my UI designing skills are very poor. To help others have the same competence, I will be focusing on this blog to address various issues that might slip through your fingers if you are not keen. This blog will focus on:
