Oh noooo
Ha ha, may be that came out a bit wrong. What I meant is I don't have a complete understanding of the architecture and the structure before I start coding. It is only when I write the first test and the first function that I start noticing the structure and the limitations. I can't think of all the branches where the code might fail unless I start writing and realizing the
elses.To an extent, you can do this with "the vibe" as well, you just have to stay engaged, do lots of reviews (by which I mean, have the LLM review for you and explain what it finds) and when you decide the architecture needs to be revised, do it - in writing. Your requirements and architecture should be "living documents" developed at least a little bit ahead of the code implementation, and if the current implementation is too far removed from your current vision of how things should fit, throw it out and re-implement from the requirements and revised architecture documents. That's one huge benefit of a tool that writes code so quickly, it's much less costly to throw it all out and start over.
This is the mark of a good engineer, don't let anyone neg you for engaging with problems with your whole brain.
It’s all vibes mannnn.
