How it works

How One Vibe A Month works

Ship a small AI-assisted build each month, earn points for momentum, and climb the monthly leaderboard.

How it works

Each month opens a new challenge window. The theme is optional—build what you want, then submit before the month ends.

  • Build a real app or game (tiny is fine).
  • Submit a link to your build (live URL preferred; App Store, itch.io, GitHub Releases, or a download page also work).
  • Earn points and climb the leaderboard.

If your submission is a download, consider adding a demo URL so people can preview it before installing anything.

Points

Points reset every month. Your monthly total determines your rank on that month’s leaderboard.

  • 10 points for your first published submission in a month.
  • 5 points for each additional published submission in the same month.
  • You can publish up to 10 submissions per month.
  • +2 points for each badge you earn.

Example: if you publish 2 submissions in a month and earn “Double Drop”, that month you’ll get 10 + 5 + 2 = 17 points.

Leaderboard

How ranking works.

Each month has a leaderboard. Your rank is based on your total points earned during that month from published submissions and badges.

Rules will evolve over time. The goal stays the same: make it easy (and fun) to ship more.

Activity Grid

Your submission history at a glance.

Your dashboard shows an activity grid — each cell represents a month. The notch pattern shows how many submissions you made that month:

0

1

2

3

4+

Build streaks by shipping at least once each month. The more you ship, the brighter your grid.
