"Vibe coding" is a term that doesn’t have a formal definition in software engineering literature, but in developer communities (especially online, e.g., Twitter/X, Reddit, or dev memes), it typically refers to writing code based on instinct, gut feeling, or "vibes" rather than structured planning, formal design, or best practices.
