Dialogs in Faith: when vibe coding clicked.

Dialogs in Faith is the build I'm most proud of — not because it's the flashiest demo, but because it started as a real question: what if AI could help people reflect on faith, doubt, and growth without pretending to have all the answers?

The Aha! moment came in early 2025, when vibe coding stopped feeling like a shortcut and started feeling like a conversation. Stay in flow, iterate in plain English, ship something that actually mattered. The result is journaling made sacred — guided conversations with 50+ voices across traditions, plus collections that help you notice patterns in your own journey.
