Made by asking AI

Each of these was built from the prompts in its guide. Have a go, then make your own.

Fluid simulation

Drag across it to push glowing colour around. Real physics on your graphics card.

Build your own →

Neon Breakout

Bounce the ball, smash the bricks and catch the power-ups.

Build your own →

A wedding website

A one-page site with the day, the venue and an RSVP form, for a made-up couple.

Build your own →

Beat maker

Press a preset, then click the squares to make the beat yours.

How it works

You don't write the code. You describe it.

1

Try the finished thing

Every project page opens with a working version. Play the game or use the timer so you know exactly what you're making.

2

Copy the prompts

Paste our tested prompts into Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini. The AI writes the code and explains it in plain English.

3

Save, open, twist it

Save the file, double-click it, and it runs. Then ask for changes: your colours, your name, a new rule.

What is vibe coding?

It's the name people use for building software by talking to an AI instead of typing code yourself. You describe what you want, try what it makes, and say what to change. Our beginner guide explains it in five minutes, with no jargon.
