Kind of is though, now that vibe coding actually works and doesn't produce slop. At least if you have $1k or so to burn on Opus 5.5.

Just point Claude at your PHP and ask it to rewrite it in Rust. I know it seemed crazy when Bun did it (and it probably was), but it actually works now. (And please try it before you say "that's what people said 6 months ago" or whatever.)

We use Xenforo, a commercial package. We'd have to rewrite it every time they released an update. That would be quite painful.

  • I don't quite follow. You'd replace it with an entirely vibe coded version. It looks like a standard phpbb style forum so that would be trivial for Opus 5.5.

    • How do you keep that vibe coded app up to date with all new discovered vulnerabilities, library dependency updates, and upstream OS changes?
