Honestly, very little. Unless you’re in a “not designed here” environment. There’s a lot of open source applications/libraries out there that can be added to your project to get what you need.
But I do agree, vibe coding can be great as long as it’s just for one off small projects. Need to do a quick computation or a quick POC and don’t want to spend the time setting everything up? Great!
But if you want to build an application that’s used by 1000 or even millions and receives regular updates? Please follow best practices / design patterns, etc… otherwise you’ll be rewiring the entire codebase every time you want to add a new feature.
