Let’s face it — we’re witnessing the fall of vibe coders.
The ones who jumped into tech because it looked cool.
The ones who cloned apps for aesthetics but never learned how an API actually works.
For a while, it worked — tech looked glamorous.
Everyone was posting dark-themed code editors, fancy setups, and “I built this in 3 days” demos.
But then reality hit.
⚠️ Evidence is everywhere:
Companies started cutting down on junior roles that can’t solve real-world problems.
Hiring managers began prioritizing depth over stack switching.
Projects are failing, not because of missing features — but because devs don’t understand core principles like data flow, state management, or backend structure.
And the truth? You can’t vibe your way through production bugs.
Frameworks will change — React, Next.js, Laravel, Python — they’ll all evolve.
But fundamentals stay the same: logic, architecture, and problem-solving.
The future belongs to those who build intentionally — who can take a problem from idea to solution, not just clone and deploy.
Vibe coders had their season.
Builders will own the decade.
đź’ Do you agree? Are we finally seeing the shift from hype-driven dev culture to real engineering again?
