STATION Austin, 701 Brazos St., Austin, United States

React ATX holds an evening in Austin with an hour of office hours first, where developers can ask questions and meet others, followed by food, drinks and a presentation slot. The talk, "Beyond Vibe Coding: The React App That Never Shipped," recounts a React app that looked convincing but never reached production, and the rebuild that did. It follows a fullstack build with Next.js, Better Auth and PostgreSQL, covering requirements, architecture, authentication and state management, and how project context and a monorepo shaped what AI could do across the stack and what it cost.
