How Vibe Coding Changed Everything

A year ago, building an MVP took 3-6 months. Today, with vibe coding, I can ship in a week.

What is Vibe Coding?

Vibe coding is using AI tools—like v0, Cursor, and Claude—to build software through conversation rather than traditional coding. You describe what you want, iterate on the output, and ship.

It's not about replacing developers. It's about 10x-ing what solo builders can accomplish.

Why It Matters for Staytrading

The 1-4 week stay format only works if creators can actually deliver in that timeframe. Vibe coding makes this possible:

**Week 1:** Discovery, wireframes, brand direction

**Week 2:** Full MVP built and deployed

**Week 3:** Polish, testing, ad creative

**Week 4:** Launch, documentation, handoff

What used to take an agency 3 months now happens in 4 weeks—with one person.

The Vibe Coding Advantage

Property owners don't want to wait 6 months for their idea to come to life. They want speed. Vibe coders deliver that—without sacrificing quality.

If you're a traditional developer, it's time to embrace these tools. If you're a non-technical creator, vibe coding might be your entry point into building.

Either way, the game has changed.
