   Vibe Coding boom: more apps, but not more users

   An article by Guokr, republished by Huxiu and 36Kr, examines the "everyone can Vibe Coding" narrative: AI lets non-coders ship apps, but the piece argues the hard problem has shifted from building to business — who will use the app and pay for it. It cites an NBER study updated in September covering more than 500,000 GitHub developers, which found AI coding tools raised code volume by roughly 30% to 240% depending on tool generation, while total projects rose only about 80% and released versions about 30%; App Store monthly new listings roughly doubled from early 2025 to April 2026, yet new apps' total usage in their first three months did not increase. It also cites a Lovable survey of over 14,300 users (80% from non-technical roles, 54.6% building a business, 60.5% not yet earning but planning to monetize) and the case of Stan's Stanley, built in about 14 days with its LinkedIn version reaching roughly $200,000 annualized revenue after six weeks — noting Stan already had creator users and distribution channels.
