Introduction
For our informatics course, we had an assignment that pushed us to create an entire webpage using only AI tools.
Honestly, this is such a very interesting concept! Sure, some might argue that AI hype is just a bubble, but building a full page from top to bottom just by “vibe-coding” feels almost PUNK-ish, especially in a university setting where AI is either heavily restricted or prohibited.
Main idea
The purpose of the assignment was clear: to test how capable AI really is at doing 100% of the work, not just 70%, 50%, or 20%. So, what did we use? Tools like Cursor, Windsurf, or any Visual Studio Code forks that have AI integrated. One thing I noticed: compared to Cursor, Windsurf handles multi-file editing more reliably, requires fewer context switches, and doesn’t need constant prompting
But there were downsides. For example, the default ChatGPT v5 bot is very slow, and I spent six hours trying to implement just 40 prompts. On larger projects, this lag becomes a real bottleneck, especially since AI still makes mistakes that need manual correction. After all, skill development is important and just relying on AI reduces the opportunities for learning.
Conclusion
Overall, I’d give it a 6/10. The concept is solid, but if it weren’t based on an Electron/Chromium fork and instead had its own independent framework, it could have been a lot more impressive.
