In my Django+Vue/TS/Inertia side project, I was surprised to see my agent know to build (use ts compiler in this context) after each change and it iterates till it gets it right. The Django code is not as typed, so I have to feed it a few error messages myself. Gotta unbreak my Mypy (python type checker) to keep my sanity.
In 2012, I felt the high of Scala programs working perfectly once it compiles. Now my TS code is almost there, and Django is somewhat behind.

Been vibecoding in rust for this reason. Even with the smaller amount of training data it does seem to produce less fragile code.
