👋 About Me

Systems Engineer by Day.
Vibe Coder by Night.

Hey, I'm Amit. I spend my working hours deep in systems engineering — but the moment the day ends, a completely different kind of building begins. I'm learning AI, experimenting with vibe coding, and documenting every step of the journey right here.

This blog isn't written by an expert looking back from the top. It's written in real time — by someone who's figuring it out alongside you.

The Honest Story Behind This Blog

I didn't start Vibe with Amit because I had it all figured out. I started it because I didn't — and I wanted somewhere to put it all down.

By profession, I'm a systems engineer. I understand complex technical environments, how to solve problems methodically, how to think in systems. But when I started exploring AI and vibe coding in my spare time, I quickly realised something: even with a technical background, this space moves so fast it can feel overwhelming. There's always a new tool, a new model, a new way of building things.

"I thought — if I'm finding this hard to navigate, what's it like for someone with no technical background at all?"

That question is what turned a personal habit into a public blog. Because the truth is, you don't need to be an engineer to use AI. You don't need to understand how any of it works under the hood. You just need someone to break it down clearly, show you what's actually worth your time, and walk you through it step by step.

That's what I'm trying to be. Not a guru. Not an influencer. Just someone a few steps ahead on the same path — turning around to share what I've learned.

Every article on this blog comes from something I've genuinely explored, tested, or built myself. If I write about a tool, I've used it. If I walk you through building something, I've built it. Nothing here is theoretical. It's all real, documented, and written for humans — not algorithms.

The Journey So Far
⚙️
Day job
Systems Engineer
Building and managing complex technical systems professionally — where analytical thinking and problem-solving become second nature.
🤖
Spare time discovery
Fell Down the AI Rabbit Hole
Started exploring AI tools out of curiosity. ChatGPT, Claude, image generation, automation — and quickly realised this was going to change everything.
🎧
Game changer
Discovered Vibe Coding
Found that you could describe an app in plain English and watch AI build it in real time. Started experimenting with Bolt, Cursor, and v0 — and got completely hooked.
🚀
Projects
Started Building Real Things
Moved from experimenting to actually shipping projects using AI prompts — apps, tools, and digital products built without writing a line of traditional code.

✦ This Blog Is For You If...

Sound Like Anyone You Know?

This isn't a blog for people who already have it figured out. It's for people who are curious, motivated, and ready to start.

🧑‍💼

You're in a traditional job and curious about AI

You hear about AI constantly but aren't sure how it actually applies to you. You want plain-English answers — not developer tutorials aimed at people who already know how to code.

💡

You're a complete beginner with zero tech background

You've never built an app. You don't know what "vibe coding" means yet. You just know something exciting is happening with AI and you want in — without having to get a computer science degree first.

🔨

You want to build something real with AI

You've got an idea — a tool, a product, a side project — and you suspect AI might be the shortcut you've been waiting for. You want practical guides that actually help you ship something, not just understand it theoretically.

What to Expect

What You'll Get From This Blog

Every piece of content here is guided by the same four things. They're not values written on a wall — they're the standard I hold every article to before it goes live.

💬

Honest, human writing

No hype. No "AI will change everything" clickbait. Just real talk about what works, what doesn't, and what's actually worth your time.

🎯

Practical over theoretical

Everything here is actionable. If you can't do something with it after reading, it hasn't earned its place on this blog.

🌱

Beginner first, always

Every concept gets explained as if you're hearing it for the first time — because for a lot of readers, you are. No assumed knowledge, ever.

📖

Documented in real time

I'm not looking back from the finish line. I'm writing as I learn — which means what you read here is current, relevant, and genuinely tested.

Let's Do This Together

If I Can Do This, So Can You.

I'm a systems engineer learning to build with AI in my spare time. I'm not a full-time creator. I don't have unlimited hours. If I can figure this out around a full-time job — so can you. Start with the blog, subscribe for weekly updates, and let's build something together.
