Haha I feel like the right reaction to "vibe-*" is to cringe. I cringe a little bit every time I see someone promoting a vibe-coded app at the moment, but I think back to how I got started in coding (I was constantly annoying people on old ActionScript forums to fix my code) and I see so much potential in people being able to get started quickly in any domain. I hope that our autorouter (and others that follow!) will similarly allow people to ship their first electronics without needing tons of guidance or formal education.

That said a good autorouter should also be useful to professionals! So hopefully we help with that as well!
