How I Quick Plan Vibe Code Projects from Scratch (copy this to save time)

How I quickly plan code projects from scratch using AI: docs, text expanders, PRD, and fast website-building tactics.

Show Notes

Parker shares a fast, repeatable approach to planning and shipping a new Vibe with AI project from scratch, plus quick takes on current AI tooling and docs strategies you can apply today.

Planning a new build from scratch

  • Start with jobs to be done (JTBD): what should users accomplish on the site? For this build, key JTBDs are:
    • Copy and reuse prompts easily
    • Learn about Vibe with AI
    • Join the Vibe with AI community
  • Breadboarding the UI: lay out routes and flows first
    • Pages to map: Home, Copy Prompts, Learn About Vibe with AI, Join Community (plus an optional account page)
    • Decide on external vs internal routes early (external link to the community vs a new page in the site)
  • Sign-in and prompts flow
    • Use anonymous sign-on as a frictionless entry, with a lightweight prompt save experience
    • Prompt copy triggers a modal/dialog and saves prompts for later
  • Reuse and remixpatterns
    • Leverage prior work (Cursor directory projects, Kitchen Pal) to save time
    • Look for common data models (users, prompts) and copy-paste-ready UI patterns
  • Roadmap to live quickly
    • Plan to host on ivibewai.com and announce via the main channel
    • Build quickly, then iterate based on feedback

Tools, tips, and learning resources mentioned

  • NIP (nip.js): declutter dead code and surface the useful parts of your repo
  • Doc gro / doc rocker: turn any URL into a concise, one-page context for quick reference
  • Quilipy: attempt to keep knowledge bases up to date; index docs frequently to avoid outdated LM data
  • Up-to-date docs idea: combine MCP-style connectors with an enterprise-friendly A2A protocol to keep data fresh
  • V0 (Vzero): fast UI prototyping tool built on Next.js and Shad CN; helps you debug Next.js issues with a primitive-based approach
  • Shad CN + Next.js ecosystem: anticipate changes and rely on well-understood primitives
  • Convex vs. Supabase
    • Supabase (PostgreSQL-based) is more feature-rich and familiar; Convex is lighter and more “training wheels”-like
    • Preference: favor feature-rich, well-established primitives when you’re building something production-like
  • LM-oriented docs tricks
    • LM’s text (llmtxt): turn any website into LM-friendly text for better docs and onboarding
    • Code GBT knowledge graph approach: uses a graph of code relationships to generate robust docs
  • Real-world examples and anchors
    • Taskmaster: founder is in the community; great for onboarding and Q&A
    • Kitchen Pal: a past project you can mine for patterns (auth flows, prompts, data models)

AI tooling news highlights

  • Agent-to-agent (A2A) protocol from Google: aims to standardize how agents talk to each other across vendors and clouds; complements MCP rather than replacing it
    • Enables real-time collaboration, memory-enabled and multimodal agent workflows
    • Enterprise impact: easier interoperation between Salesforce, Atlassian, SAP, and other big platforms
  • The enterprise shift
    • Emphasizes agentic workflows (teams of agents with specialized tasks) over single, monolithic agents
    • Start small with agentic tasks, scale to cross-company collaboration as confidence grows
  • Knowledge/documentation tooling trends
    • Up-to-date docs is a recurring pain point; solutions include targeted doc gro workflows and LM-friendly docs pipelines
    • Several repositories and tooling (LMX-style resources, llmtxt, etc.) show a pattern: convert docs and web content into LM-friendly, refreshable formats
  • Practical take: rely on proven primitives and open-source patterns
    • Build on known stacks (Postgres-based backends, Next.js frontends)
    • Reuse and remix existing projects to move faster

Strategy for the Vibe with AI site (planning and execution)

  • Define the site’s core jobs to be done and translate them into routes
  • Breadboard the user flow first, then wire up UI elements
    • Homepage → Copy Prompts → Learn about Vibe with AI → Join Community
    • Consider an account page later for saved prompts
  • UX decisions to simplify user onboarding
    • Lightweight anonymous sign-on with a frictionless path to a saved prompts repository
    • Clear external link versus internal route distinction
  • Build on existing assets
    • Start from Cursor directory project and Kitchen Pal for patterns (auth, prompts, data models)
    • Use these as a blueprint, then remix to match the Vibe with AI brand
  • Next steps Parker plans
    • Implement the breadboard on ivibewai.com
    • Create content and routing in the main channel video
    • If you want Kitchen Pal links, drop “kitchen pal” in the comments and Parker will share assets
  • Community and cadence
    • Leverage the daily channel for quick iterations and feedback
    • Keep the site tightly aligned with the “learn, copy, join” JTBDs

Actionable takeaways

  • Start every project with a jobs-to-be-done list and a breadboard of routes
  • Reuse successful patterns from your own repo history to save time
  • When docs are outdated, use things like Quilipy and llmtxt to keep knowledge fresh
  • Explore agent-to-agent protocols for enterprise-scale workflows to future-proof integrations
  • Build with an MVP in mind (three core pages) and add features (account page, saved prompts) only after validating the core flows
  • If you’re prototyping, try V0 for rapid UI iteration and Next.js-friendly tooling
