Napkin to Browser in Minutes! Vibe‑Coding a Retro Gaming Site with AI 🎮✨
Welcome to the very first episode of our Vibe‑Coding series—where we turn a hand‑drawn napkin idea into our fully‑functioning web front‑end with the power of LLMs! In this video, you’ll learn how we:
- 🎨 Sketch a simple “PicoPixl” retro‑gaming homepage on a napkin
- ✍️ Craft a clear prompt describing our design goals
- 🤖 Send it to an LLM (like Claude.ai or ChatGPT) to generate production‑ready HTML/CSS
- 🚀 Run the spit‑shined code in the browser—no downloads, pure gaming fun!
Whether you’re a designer, developer, or AI enthusiast, follow along as we build PicoPixl.com—a free, in‑browser arcade community featuring classics like Pong, Snake, Tetris, and more. You’ll see firsthand how “vibe‑coding” leverages AI to streamline the creative process and get you from sketch to site in record time.
