AI product Open source
Can I Vibecode It? is an open-source catalog that evaluates whether AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor can build a usable personal replacement for a paid SaaS application. Each app entry provides a YES, KINDA, or NOT REALLY verdict, the exact prompt for attempting the replacement, and the tradeoffs of leaving the original service, including lost network effects, data, or infrastructure. App entries are contributed as one JSON file per app, with the schema and verdict criteria documented in the repository.
The site uses Astro server output with a Node adapter to render fully server-rendered HTML, SQLite via better-sqlite3 for vote counters and waitlist data, and vanilla JavaScript and CSS for interactions. Satori and resvg generate Open Graph images at build time. It runs locally with npm install, npm run dev, npm run build, and npm start, requires no environment variables for local development, and supports optional analytics, sign-in, payments, email, and media-storage configuration. It can be deployed on a VPS behind a reverse proxy, with DATA_DIR used to keep user data outside the repository. The project is released under the MIT License, and its prompts are intended to remain free.
