I found this YouTube video demonstrating vibe coding with Vaadin, but I see no way to approximate the same behavior in Vaadin Copilot AI. Am I missing something?
It is excellent because it has a nice AI panel to the left, with good prompting. It matches other AI coding tools I have been using quite well. I am hoping I am just missing something somewhere. Here is a picture from the video. It references something called “Rudolf”, which I can find no reference to anywhere. Regardless, it is such a great looking experience, and I hope I am missing something simple on my end.
If anyone has advice on using the AI part of Vaadin Copilot, that would be much appreciated. It has not worked well for me so far, compared to other AI tools I have been trying out. Having a dedicated AI panel would help immensely and be a good first step.
The one from recording is early preview of AI chat we are currently working on. It’s not yet publicly available. For the moment Vaadin Copilot supports single prompts processing using Command Window (can be activated from bottom right menu). AI is also present in different parts of Copilot like data generation for charts, entity creation, new view creation or Lumo theme creation from image.
BTW thank you for detailed feedback we received about current state of AI.
In the meantime, if you want to do vibe-coding with Vaadin with something like Cursor, Claude Code, IntelliJ Junie, add the Vaadin MCP server and you should hopefully get pretty good results Vaadin Documentation as a Service - #21 by marcushellberg

Hi Marcus,
I’m trying this out in Intellij with AI Assistent, but I run into the following error:
StandaloneCoroutine was cancelled

Any ideas?
