Vibe Banitsa is back!
It's been a while since we've had a proper sit-down-and-talk banitsa, and we're fixing that. Two old-timers from the Sofia Ruby scene — Genadi Samokovarov and Deyan Dobrinov — are dusting off their side projects and firing up their terminals for a double feature.
Both have been deep in the Claude Code rabbit hole, using it to build and maintain the kind of projects you start on a weekend and somehow still care about years later. They'll show you how they actually work with it — not the polished demo version, but the real thing. The back-and-forth, the nudging, the "no, not that" moments, the letting it cook, and the fixing things by hand when it doesn't.
Genadi will walk through how he keeps Balkan Ruby and his open-source tools alive with the help of his little AI assistant, while Deyan will share his own workflow and the projects he's been quietly shipping on the side.
If you've been curious about what it looks like when someone who's been writing code for a long time lets a model do some of the typing — and when they don't — this one's for you.
If you are vibe-curious, this one's for you.

Go to Business Center Vitosha building (not Puzl CowOrKing entrance), head to the elevators and go to the last floor. After exiting the elevator, go up the stairs to the very last floor and enter the cafè. The "Creativity Room" space should be to your right.
