# About

      

        The Vibe Coder's Guide to MVP is a structured set of skills and a project template that take a non-engineer
        from a rough idea to a deployed, MVP-quality web application using AI coding agents like Claude Code or Codex.
      

      
## Why this exists

      

        The capability gap that used to keep non-engineers from shipping software is gone. AI coding agents in 2026
        write production-quality code when directed well. The remaining gap is the rubric — the silent set of
        things a senior engineer would do that a vibe-coded prototype usually skips. Real auth. Accessibility. A
        privacy policy that names sub-processors. A deploy that doesn't require AWS expertise. A pitch deck for
        investors that doesn't look like clipart.
      

      

        We built the Vibe Coder's Guide to encode that rubric as a stack of markdown skills your AI agent reads and
        follows. The agent has a short conversation with you about the parts that need your judgment ("what's the
        product idea?" "which auth provider?") and does the rest itself. Together you ship a real MVP in about
        thirty minutes.
      

      
        Believe you can. You can.
      

      
## What's here

      

        - 
          [**The Skills**](/skills/) — 17 markdown files covering discover, design,
          auth, AI integration, monetization, compliance, accessibility, security, performance, deploy, domain,
          end-to-end testing, ship checklist, and founder deliverables. Free download.
        

        - 
          [
            **The Project Template**
          ](https://github.com/titan-alpha/vibe-coders-guide-to-mvp-starter) — A Next.js + TypeScript + Tailwind + DaisyUI scaffold where every feature from the skills is
          pre-built and toggleable through environment variables. Ships with the skills inside. Free.
        

        - 
          [**The Blog**](/blog/) — Notes on building, shipping, and monetizing MVPs
          with AI coding agents. New posts daily.
        

        - 
          [**The Guide**](/) — A short carousel that walks you through picking an
          agent, installing it, and pasting the prompt that bootstraps the whole flow. Maybe two minutes.
        

      

      
## Who's behind this

      

        Made by **Titan Alpha**, a small studio building tools for the next generation of vibe coders.
        Everything you see here is open: the skills are [MIT-licensed on GitHub](https://github.com/titan-alpha/vibe-coders-guide-to-mvp-skills),
        the starter template is [MIT-licensed on GitHub](https://github.com/titan-alpha/vibe-coders-guide-to-mvp-starter),
        and this entire site — including the deploy script that puts it on AWS for $0.50 a month — is
        documented in the blog.
      

      

        We dogfood. Every pattern recommended in the skills is something we've shipped at least once ourselves, and
        most of them ship this very site.
      

      
## How to use this

      

        Pick one of the two paths:
      

      

        - 
          **You have an existing project** — download the skills only, drop them into your AI
          agent's skill directory, and ask the agent to read `vibe-mvp/SKILL.md`. The agent will treat
          each skill as a checkpoint, audit what's already done, and only do the work that's missing.
        

        - 
          **You're starting fresh** — download the project template, which includes the skills
          inside. Open it, run `npm install` + `npm run dev`, and follow the agent's lead from
          the landing page.

## What this is not

      

        Not a SaaS. Not a paid product. Not a course. Not a coaching offer. The Vibe Coder's Guide is free,
        open-licensed, and supported by the small AdSense revenue this site generates. If you want to support the
        project, share it with someone who'd find it useful, or contribute fixes to the GitHub repos.
