Vibe 102 Jumpstart

What this is

Jumpstart is for students who missed Vibe 101 or feel rusty.

This is not the full Vibe 101 class. It only gets you ready to join Vibe 102 today.

Why it matters

The class should keep moving. Jumpstart gives new students enough setup language to follow the same Vibe 102 path as everyone else.

What to do

Open these:

• ChatGPT or Perplexity.
• Your coding IDE.
• A browser.
• A project folder.
• A terminal inside the project.

Know these words:

• localhost means the app is running on your computer.
• terminal is where project commands run.
• error message is the exact text to paste when something breaks.
• component is one part of the app screen.
• localStorage is browser memory for this class.

Run commands only when the class asks:

npm install
npm run dev

If you are new today, choose the default Mission Task Tracker.

Common mistakes

• Asking AI to explain all of Vibe 101.
• Choosing a custom app before you understand the class flow.
• Closing the terminal while localhost is running.
• Saying "it does not work" without pasting the real error.
