Can I vibecode Guidde?
// buildable in a weekend, but real gaps stay open
The core loop is buildable, but a dependable replacement becomes a real weekend or multi-day project. For Guidde, turn a captured workflow into a narrated step-by-step video guide. The hard boundary is browser capture, ai voice and text, templates, hosting, and team knowledge features, plus capture polish, hosting, and collaboration.

The prompt
A weekend with a coding agent. The gaps that stay are right below, under “what you lose”.
Build a personal replacement for Guidde in an empty repository.
Use Tauri 2, React, TypeScript, ffmpeg, and SQLite; do not offer alternative stacks.
The core loop is: capture a screen or window with microphone audio, trim the result, annotate key moments, and export a narrated step-by-step guide as a shareable local video.
Make the first run work locally with one documented command.
Store all user data locally by default and make export straightforward.
Put secrets in .env, ship .env.example, and never commit credentials.
Offer screen, window, or region capture plus optional microphone audio.
Show an always-visible recording timer and make stop available from the tray.
Create a non-destructive trim view with crop, zoom, cursor highlight, and text callouts.
Render locally through ffmpeg with sensible H.264 and WebM presets.
Generate a poster frame, transcript, and Markdown summary beside each video.
Provide copy-file-path and reveal-in-folder actions instead of mandatory cloud upload.
Include clear empty, loading, success, and recoverable error states.
Add input validation, safe filenames, and graceful handling of unavailable APIs.
Write focused tests for the core transformation and one end-to-end happy path.
Create a README with setup, architecture, permissions, data location, and backup steps.
Do not add accounts, billing, telemetry, analytics, or a hosted control plane.
Deliberately leave out public cloud hosting.
Deliberately leave out viewer identity and engagement analytics.
Deliberately leave out enterprise workspaces and SSO.
Finish by running the tests and listing the exact commands used. Prompt generated from the data on this page, not reviewed by hand yet. In English on purpose — it is the language coding agents work best in.
What you lose
- browser capture, AI voice and text, templates, hosting, and team knowledge features
- instant hosted sharing
- viewer analytics
- team libraries
- cross-device capture
Why people still pay
People still pay for Guidde because the recording itself is easy; the subscription removes upload, transcoding, sharing, organization, and support work. The recurring cost buys OS permissions, codecs, rendering performance, uploads, storage, links, and viewer analytics, not just the visible interface.
