21 Sites for Every Serious Vibe Coder: What Each One Does and the First Thing to Try
The places vibe coders keep bookmarked: real designs to copy, design files your AI reads, ready-made components, animations, effects and art. What each one is, and the first thing to try.
The list
AI can write the code for an app. What it is worst at is taste: left alone, it builds the same plain page every time. These 21 sites fix that. Some give you real designs to copy, some give your AI a style it can follow, and some hand you finished parts to drop in. They work with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Lovable and v0. Here they are at a glance, then a section on each with the link and the first thing to try.
