DESIGNING APIS FOR VIBE CODING

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Vibe coders discover APIs by asking their LLMs to solve a problem. This means apps looking to increase their vibe-ability will need to make it easier for LLMs to discover and correctly use their APIs. Flat and verbose beats concise, and conformity beats originality. This could mean there will be fewer innovative API designs in the future and that adoption might become tougher for newer programming languages.
