I would like to see vibecode crowd accept this challenge. We hear a lot of claims about people building some impressive applications and tools in one afternoon. Or nightmarish monstrosities with hundreds of thousands of line of code.

So it shouldn't be too hard to make another app?

They are not living up to expectation. This is a different test but still.

    "My workflow revolves around nix build and nix flake check. I don't see any reason to shift that for vibecoding tools. Getting Nix flakes into your chatbot's harness is wholly your problem."

My my, what a warm welcome to competitors.
