Vibing a PCB - surprisingly good In my latest adventure, I challenged AI to design a working ESP32-S3 development board from scratch using Atopile and Claude. The idea was as simple as vibe-coding actual hardware without diving into the code. It was a chaotic yet fascinating journey, with some misses like unwired components and a forgotten capacitor. After a few prompts, the AI delivered a surprisingly functional board featuring USB-C, an AMS1117 regulator, and status LEDs. While not yet perfect, vibe-coding feels like a glimpse into the future of hardware design. 12 July 2025
Just Vibe It I crafted a whimsical single key keyboard ideal for vibe coding! It's powered by a TPS2117-equipped PCB, offering slick battery-to-USB switching. Tried out low profile Cherry switches, but faced some stabilizer challenges with bigger keycaps. Check out the final fun in my GitHub repo and video! 04 July 2025
