Talk with AI to build products—in VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf
Karpathy coined the term "vibe coding" to describe creating without going deep into code by just talking to your computer, describing what to build, debugging as you go, and talking it out. Vibecoder let's you do this with a VScode/Cursor/Windsurf extension.
Hey Product Hunt community! 👋 I'm thrilled to share Vibe Coder with you today. This is very much an experiment—a first draft of what we believe could be a transformative approach to coding.
For the last two years I have been loving this workflow: - have an idea - go to chatgpt or claude - ask the AI to help you scope out a project - tell it the way you want it to be built - then just “be the product manager” - tell it to generate code - then blindly copy paste code - and copy paste errors - do this over and over - until you have working code or an app (usually a dozen or so iterations)
This is so powerful. And it has gotten even better with the increasing capabilities of models and development environments. I am so psyched to see what the Deepgram team has produced and I am so happy to finally be able to smoothly vibe code by just using my voice. Now the sessions are far more detailed and happen faster and have a better outcome.
We built this because we've been fascinated by the potential of combining voice input with AI-powered IDEs. What happens when you can just talk through your coding process instead of constantly context-switching between thinking and typing?
The extension has two main modes:
- Vibe Mode: Have conversations with an AI assistant about your code, brainstorm ideas, and explore solutions
- Code Mode: Dictate code with customizable AI rewrites that polish your spoken thoughts into proper syntax
We've been using this internally at Deepgram for months to build real projects (including Vibe Coder itself!), and we're seeing promising results in productivity and creative problem-solving.
This is just the beginning—we're releasing it as open source because we want to see where the community takes it. Try it out, break it, improve it, and let us know what you think!
