Of course I expect it is vibe coding. It would be insane to code anything by hand these days. But that doesn't mean there is no creative input by the author here.

I strongly disagree, but it made me chuckle a bit, thinking about labeling software as "handmade" or marketing software house as "artisanal".
There's a lot of errors you can miss by coding by hand, even as a seasoned developer. Try taking Claude Code, point it at your repo, and ask it to find bugs. I bet it will.
Claude is actually a crazy good vuln researcher. If you use it that way, your code might just be more secure than written purely by hand.
Sure, just like drug-sniffing dogs. Whether they've actually found something or are just pleasing the operator is another story.

Depends on what you’re building and whether it’s recreational or not. Complex architecture vs a ui analysis tool, for example. For a ui analysis tool, the only reason you code by hand is for the joy of coding by hand. Even though you can drive a car or fly in a plane there are times to walk or ride a bike still.
Our organic artisanal code is written by free-range developers
"free-range" means fully remote, right?
Depending on your standards and what company is making it you could even have “cruelty free.”

You well on the path to AI-fueled psychosis if you genuinely believe this.
I genuinely believe this. Even if you're inventing a new algorithm it is better to describe the algorithm in English and have AI do the implementation.
At least it's more productive than AI Derangement Syndrome.
