  1. Interesting visualization! How did you measure the spread of “Vibe coding” on GitHub?

  2. I’ve built a tool that analyzes the popularity of technologies and trends using GitHub search data.

    One interesting finding was the emergence of “Vibe coding,” spreading like a wildfire across GitHub repositories.

    **Data source:** GitHub search

    **Tool:** [GitHub Trends Analysis](https://trends.domage.dev/?search=Vibe+coding&date=2023-01-01&startYear=2022&endYear=2025&granularity=month&metric=repositories&showHIndex=false&showTrend=true)

    You can read more about the methodology and how I adapted the H-index approach to GitHub repositories here: [https://medium.com/@glebradchenko/how-i-decided-to-figure-out-which-technologies-are-popular-today-and-ended-up-creating-github-4135ed4b9ee4](https://medium.com/@glebradchenko/how-i-decided-to-figure-out-which-technologies-are-popular-today-and-ended-up-creating-github-4135ed4b9ee4)

  3. So mentions of the phrase “vibe coding” went up, from zero mentions a month, to some mentions a month, right after the term was invented?

    Fascinating…

  5. In vibe coding, maintainability hell is the secret sauce that keeps the vibes flowing
