VibeJam Live is the first official r/vibecoding hackathon.

1st place: LIFETIME membership to the Vibes DIY “early adopter” package (free tokens and storage every month forever)!

2nd place: $1,000 in Cline credits!



The winners will be chosen from today's participants after a community voting session. Here are the ground rules.



1. You will have a :30 minute planning session to choose your tools and develop your idea. Starting now!


2. You will then have 1 hour to vibe code your app. That’s not much time, so keep it simple!


3. You must record your laptop or desktop coding session. You’ll have to submit this with your app, as proof of your work. We'll also potentially all benefit from watching each other’s workflows.



And the final rule: your idea must adhere to this theme:
