Mixed-methods study shows vibecoding improves prototyping speeds in app development while requiring human oversight to ensure quality.
Vibe coding is a conversational, AI-driven approach to software creation where developers guide large language models to generate code iteratively. This paper uses multiple real-world apps—EconoFacts, BusinAI, SimuStocks—to show it accelerates prototyping by 60–80%, boosts creativity, but requires human oversight for quality, security, and maintainability.
