Why Use PromptDC with Vibecode?
What changes when you rewrite prompts with PromptDC inside Vibecode.
Rewrite in Vibecode
Select a draft in Vibecode, press Command+Shift+E on Mac or Ctrl+Shift+E on Windows, review the rewrite, and choose Replace.
Vibecode Briefs
The Code profile turns a rough Vibecode request into a structured brief covering screens, native patterns, data, permissions, offline behavior, and device states.
Chrome Field Rewriting
On the Vibecode website in Chrome, use Command+Shift+Space or Ctrl+Shift+Space to rewrite the active field as a secondary option.

Prototype a travel journal
Before PromptDC
Make a travel journal app.
After PromptDC
Build an iPhone travel journal prototype. Screens: trips, timeline, new entry, photo, map. Entries: photo, caption, place, date, private note. Use native navigation, bottom sheets, and offline samples. Handle empty, denied-photo, and no-location states.
Why this is better: The screen map, data model, native patterns, offline scope, and device states guide Vibecode.
Add a trip timeline
Before PromptDC
Show all memories in a timeline.
After PromptDC
Group entries by day with sticky date headers. Tap detail; long press edit or delete with confirmation. Lazy-load photos and preserve scroll. Support entries without location. Announce date, place, caption, and photo count.
Why this is better: Grouping, gestures, performance, missing data, and VoiceOver behavior are explicit.
Design photo permissions
Before PromptDC
Ask users for photo access.
After PromptDC
Use the system picker and selected-photo access. Explain benefit before the system permission dialog. Allow text-only entries without permission. Handle limited, denied, canceled, and removed photos. Never request access at app launch.
Why this is better: A privacy-conscious native permission flow covers all recovery paths.
