What is vibe coding and where it came from

This week, Federico and John explain how they go about creating personal productivity tools with the assistance of AI and walk through some of what they have created.

On AppStories+, we talk about our Black Friday tech purchases.

We deliver AppStories+ to subscribers with bonus content, ad-free, and at a high bitrate early every week.
