I am a vibecoder in the construction industry who builds mostly with Flutter and JavaScript. I find inspiration from problems I encounter with family and at work. I hack on my own projects after work, often into the middle of the night. I have a few apps that I’ve made, a few apps that I am making, and many more apps that I plan to make. I also have a YouTube channel where I post project walkthroughs, though mostly I build micro-tool apps as content around what I’m learning. I am starting a nearSuite line as my own distribution because I resent how social media platforms can feel like a highlight reel of people’s lives, when in reality, we all struggle, especially when making things.

My goal for my projects is to help people find success by using tools that I also use. I have a lot of things to learn, a lot of things to test, and a lot of skills to develop, but I put myself out there anyway.

I’ve always had an interest in making apps, computer games, websites, you name it. I’m not sure why I didn’t get into building earlier, but it was not until recently that I began dabbling with no-code app-making tools. By the time I became somewhat proficient within a particular no-code tool, AI became available to consumers around the spring of 2024. AI was not that useful at first, but month after month, all of the AI labs made improvements. Then one day, probably around when Google’s Firestore Studio dropped, using only AI to build projects became superior to no-code applications. The advertisers named us vibecoders. Since 2024, I’ve probably spent nearly every day using these models. I’ve seen the model updates in the chats before the news releases on Twitter. I have no misgivings about being a vibecoder. I find it all very interesting: the headline business, the model capabilities, and the empowerment of the solo guy building in the middle of the night. I have learned so many new things along the way and am optimistic about what the next day has to reveal. I created this page in an afternoon; the sun is still out. That would have been an unthinkable achievement four years ago.
