i vibe coded for 7 months straight.


my entire testing process was: does it look right on my screen? cool. push to production.
AI never once said "hey you should probably not do that."
this month i finally set up a staging environment.
separate Vercel. separate Supabase. separate database. separate branch.
first week caught three things that would've broken for real users.
here's what i actually learned:
localhost isn't testing. it's a demo you give yourself.
staging is where you find out what actually breaks.
shipping direct to users with no middle step isn't moving fast.. it's gambling.
vibe coding gets you to "works on my machine."
staging gets you to "works for everyone."
set it up before you need it. not after.
