Vibecoding between dog walks, tango with bugs, and zero costs: how a humanitarian with no technical background created a tennis app in 15 hours

Commercial special projects producer at AIN.UA Viktoriya Khorovets took three days off to reboot, and instead… accidentally became a vibecoder. Without any technical background, but with a lot of enthusiasm, Viktoriya organized a 50-round “ping-pong” of queries between Claude and Gemini. The result? Her own working application for playing tennis with friends, which now flaunts an icon on the screen of her smartphone. Victoria shared with dev.ua her experience of transforming from a humanitarian into a vibecoder in just three days.
