From prototype to production: Vibe coding design for real engineering systems

Vibe coding can feel empowering for designers, but production code plays by different rules–and designers can’t see the full picture. In this panel, our panel members will unpack the hidden constraints, tradeoffs, and expectations that shape real codebases. Learn what engineers wish designers understood about AI‑generated code, and how to collaborate more effectively as design and engineering roles continue to blur.
