The most popular vibe coding tools and stacks
7,266 of 24,437 new projects in the last 12 weeks said what they were built with or run on. Shares below are of those projects, so they show what's popular among builders who share their stack.
Tables list tools with 10+ projects in 12 weeks, most-used first. Trend: bars are each week's share; ▲ / ▼ mark a change of +25% / −20% or more in share (last 4 weeks vs the 8 before); a plain % is a smaller change; – means under 20 projects in the last 4 weeks, too few to judge.

Cooling tools
Same comparison, biggest drops.
AI coding tools
Assistants and agents used to write the code. “Claude (chat or unspecified)” means the builder said they built it with Claude without naming Claude Code; it isn't counted when the same project names Claude Code. Likewise for ChatGPT and Gemini.
