So You Vibe Coded an App. But Can It Survive Real Users?

Generative AI
Let me be upfront - I'm not here to bash Vibe Coding. I've written about using AI to build, and I stand by it. But there's a conversation we're not having enough in this community, and it's this: shipping an app is not the same as building a production-ready one. Anyone can get an app live in a weekend with AI. The real question is what happens on Monday - when real users show up, internet connections drop, APIs fail, and someone's cart disappears because you never thought about offline persistence. I've built several apps under my own company as a solo developer.
