Vibe coding JavaScript is JavaScript shipped after AI tools generate most of the lines while you steer by intent and small edits. Production still runs on the real event loop, real HTTP, and real user inputs — so timing, references, and mutation dominate debugging. Models optimize for plausible happy paths; users live on edge cases. This guide is a quick-reference card: ten concepts, the error flavor you will recognize, a minimal fix, and a Scrimba link to drill each skill without autopilot.

Vibe coding is a programming approach where a developer describes what they want to an AI assistant — Cursor, ChatGPT, Claude, GitHub Copilot — and the AI generates the implementation. The developer focuses on intent and direction, not syntax.

Vibe coding was named Collins Dictionary's Word of the Year 2025 — the term is widely associated with Andrej Karpathy on Twitter/X in February 2025 (see Collins’ Word of the Year announcement and Karpathy’s post on X for primary sourcing).
