What You Should Know Before Vibe Coding with React
summary
AI-generated React code often defaults to React + Next.js + Tailwind, repeats outdated patterns and produces predictable bugs: AI converts server components into client components and can expose environment variables, inserts unnecessary useEffect for everything, creates inline object props that trigger excessive rerenders, and duplicates logic across files. Practical fixes demonstrated include TypeScript, ESLint rules, Git hooks, unit tests, react-scan to find renders, folder collocation, regular refactoring and clearer prompt engineering.
