Overview

Vibes and Versions: Coding in the Age of AI A Story of Software, Speed, and the Future of Work What happens when the way we build software changes faster than the methods meant to manage it? Vibes and Versions is a hybrid of story and strategy-a book that follows one team's chaotic sprint toward a product launch while unpacking two very different approaches to AI-driven development: Vibe Coding - fast, intuitive, improvisational coding powered by large language models AI-Assisted Engineering - structured, testable development using AI as a disciplined collaborator within traditional Agile practices Through alternating chapters of narrative fiction and practical insight, you'll watch a diverse group of developers wrestle with burnout, breakthroughs, and what it means to ship software in an age where the tools are changing the rules. This book doesn't take sides. It shows how both approaches offer value-and how a fusion of vibe and versioned engineering might be the key to building great software (and healthier teams) in the AI era. Inside you'll find: Toolkits for both vibe coders and structured AI-assisted engineers Side-by-side prompt evolution examples Model comparison tables (GPT, Claude, CodeWhisperer, etc.) Mini case studies of real-world teams navigating the transition If you're a dev, a tech leader, or just curious about what AI means for how we build software, this is your field guide.
