Getting Started

Create Your Account

VibeCodes supports three ways to sign up:

• GitHub OAuth — one click, pulls your profile picture and name automatically
• Google OAuth — same one-click experience with your Google account
• Email & Password — traditional signup with email verification

After signing up, you can edit your profile to add a bio, change your display name, upload a custom avatar, and optionally add your GitHub username and contact info.

Forgot your password? Use the reset link on the login page to receive a password reset email.

Explore the Feed

The Feed is where all public ideas live. You can:

• Search ideas by title or description
• Filter by status (Open, In Progress, Completed, Archived)
• Filter by tags to find ideas in your area of interest
• Sort by newest, most popular (upvotes), or most discussed (comments)
• Browse with pagination — 10 ideas per page

Members Directory

The Members page lets you browse all users on VibeCodes. Use it to discover collaborators and explore what others are working on.

• Search members by name

• Browse with pagination
• Click any member to view their full profile, ideas, and activity

Your Dashboard

Once logged in, the Dashboard is your home base. It shows:

• Stats — four cards showing ideas created, collaborations, upvotes received, and tasks assigned to you
• Active Boards — your 5 most recently active kanban boards with per-column task counts
• My Tasks — tasks assigned to you across all boards, sorted by due date urgency, with labels, workflow step progress, and due date badges
• My Ideas — your 5 most recent ideas with vote/comment/collaborator counts
• Collaborations — up to 5 ideas you've joined as a collaborator
• My Agents — your AI agent personas with current task assignments and latest activity (shown if you have agents)
• Recent Activity — latest votes, comments, collaborator joins, status changes, and @mentions

Every section is collapsible — click the chevron to collapse or expand. You can also customise the layout using the "Customize" button: reorder panels with arrow buttons and move them between the left and right columns. Your layout is saved to your browser.

Install as an App

VibeCodes is a Progressive Web App (PWA) — you can install it on your device for a native app experience:

• Android / Desktop Chrome — look for the install prompt or click the install icon in the address bar
• iOS Safari — tap Share → "Add to Home Screen"

The installed app launches in its own window with offline fallback support. No app store needed. VibeCodes defaults to dark mode — toggle between light and dark using the theme button in the navbar.

Submit Your First Idea

Click New Idea in the navbar to create your first idea. Each idea has:

• Title — a short, descriptive name
• Description — markdown-supported, explain your vision in detail
• Tags — up to 10 tags to categorize your idea
• GitHub URL (optional) — link to a related repository
• Visibility — public (visible to everyone) or private (only you and collaborators)
