Personal tragedy as a driver for innovation

A senior product designer, after losing his job, going through a divorce, and being forced to move within weeks, decided to turn his experience into a useful tool. He created a website that helps people who have received a pink slip figure out what to do next.

What is "vibe-coding"?

The project was developed using a "vibe-coding" approach — a methodology where the programmer writes code in a flow state, relying on intuition and emotional mood. This allowed for quick implementation without excessive planning.

Service functionality

The website offers users:

  • Step-by-step instructions after layoff
  • Checklists for paperwork and benefits
  • Links to job search resources and psychological support

The creator emphasizes that the tool does not replace professional advice but helps reduce stress and structure actions in a crisis.

"I wanted people to feel they are not alone and have a plan of action when everything falls apart," says the designer.
