Happy 1-year Anniversary to something we love: vibe coding! It was on this day last year that Andrej Karpathy coined the term and we've hardly left our screens since. Five months later, Shakespeare was born so everyone can vibe code, regardless of skill level.

We're not hosting a vibe coding session tonight on @HiveTalk . DevRel @Derek Ross will be @Bitcoin Park Nashville instead! Go check him out IRL if you're in the neighborhood:

For the past week, we've shared what people are building with Shakespeare. If you've tried it, we'd appreciate an honest review on Product Hunt. Every review helps more people find open alternatives to closed website builders:

Last night, DevRel @Derek Ross gave a presentation on AI to small and medium business owners, entrepreneurs, and business professionals. Around 50 people attended, representing a wide range of industries, including contractors, finance, insurance, and real estate. He talked about AI, productivity, and using Shakespeare to build websites and social applications. (Plus a short rant about Nostr and Bitcoin, because he is the leading Nostr evangelist, after all.) Most attendees already use ChatGPT daily. One had built apps with Replit, and another was using Grok. Everyone was eager to learn more about alternatives.

It's time for another live vibe coding session hosted by @Derek Ross ! Join us tonight on ostr:npub1z0lcg9p2v5nzg5fycxq0k56ze6snp42clmrafzqpn5w6u74v5x9q708ldk as we talk all things open source development on Nostr using a little coding assistance from Shakespeare. Bring questions & show off your projects:

🏆 Congrats to @Code Orange Dev School @Geektoshi and @Studio 3.14 Official for winning our #Shakespeare Halloween Hackathon! You've each been zapped 87k sats! For the prize in functional Innovation, we loved Block Cemetery by Code Orange. Block Cemetery is a live Bitcoin block explorer built on Nostr, where each new block rises from the grave in real time. https://npub1gzvs8egve0vnvhvcg7qjtdg2ryht48jqs3t3rhqtr6x4wcqklddqkdd7uc.nosto.re/ For the design category, we were impressed by Spookstr by Studio314Official. Spookstr is a paranormal Nostr community, complete with notes, groups, events, podcasts, and more! https://spookstr2.shakespeare.wtf/ Finally, our Judge's Choice prize goes to Haunted Relay Scanner by Geek. This creative take on a relay status tracker demonstrates both the spirit of Halloween and the massive power of Nostr. 👻 https://haunted-forest-scanner.shakespeare.wtf/ Thank you to everyone who participated! #Nostr #Bitcoin #ShakespeareDIY #VibeCoding #GrowNostr
