Re: Vibe Coding in Odoo

Re: Vibe Coding in Odoo

AI isn't killing off good Odoo developers and designers anytime soon. It does make the work easier and faster. But if you don't have some real skills first, forget it IMO, you'll just make a huge mess. Over 90% of odoo dev is nothing to do with writing code, and the AI's are actually quite good at that part, but they just aren't on the core turning that into real correct business logic code side.

Dear OCA Contributors Team,

I am writing to inquire if there is a way to develop or customize Odoo applications using AI coding agents, such as Cursor. I would appreciate any insights or guidance you could provide on this topic.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Best regards,
Mohamed

      I've tried both OpenAI's Codex and Anthropic's Claude Code.

      Please note that this is based on my personal experience of a couple of weeks of usage of both assistants, here are my 2 cents: I wasn't particularly impressed by Codex while Claude Code seems quite solid even on medium-complexity tasks, on the condition that the outcoming code is properly refined by a competent developer. 

      In fact, I don't think that any of these assistants are actually viable, yet, for pure vibe coding, meaning you will have big issues in the long term if you don't carefully refine the outcoming code. On the other hand if you already are a developer and you are able to apply a hybrid mode of "prompting" + manual refining, then I would recommend Claude Code, and not necessarily using Opus: even Sonnet model can perform well the with proper supervision. ;-)
