@troed I find that it saves me about 20%-30% when I vibe code together student assignments for my students.

The annoying thing, which by now is of course not news, is that it misses things and it misses test cases and certain errors. So I have to read and understand it and I can most definitely not trust it.

But yes, in total, probably 20%-30% time savings.
