Welcome back to What the Tech Tuesday (Halloween Edition!)—a series where we break down tech jargon.
This week: Feature Creep
When projects keep picking up new features until they lose focus.
Sometimes the hardest part of building something is knowing when to stop.
Vibe coding is a part of our early-stage method. ⚙️
It lets our teams build AI-powered prototypes in hours—skipping wireframes and going straight to something users can click, test, and react to. 🖱️
This isn’t replacing our designers—it’s reducing rework and helping us move faster, getting prototypes to our clients faster. ⏱️
But when it’s time for app production, the code is still getting the full quality assurance treatment. 🧠
Good vibes only. 🌀Bad code need not apply. 💻
Welcome to What the Tech Tuesday—a series where we break down tech jargon, one buzzword at a time.
Because tech is confusing enough without acronyms flying everywhere.
First up: APIs—how your apps secretly talk behind your back. 👀

As always, it’s essential to be careful about online transactions. We’ve noticed an uptick in brands (including ours!) being used maliciously to take advantage of prospective job candidates.
We only accept job applications via our website, and employees at Punchcard do not use personal or Gmail accounts for business transactions.
If you’ve been the target of a web-based scam, please contact your local authorities to file a police report. Like you, we’re all frustrated with bad actors, and apologize for the inconvenience.

We've asked fellow Punchcardigans to share some of their wellness tips—read them below 👇.
Tip 1: Invest in a nice chair 🪑. Look for chairs with adjustable features so you can set the appropriate support you need.
Tip 2: Take breaks from all screens 💻. Set a timer every 30 minutes to take a break. Get up, walk around, or do some quick stretches, and don't forget to also rest your eyes!
Tip 3: Make time to socialize (virtually) 💬. Just because we're working from home doesn't mean you have to miss out on the water cooler chats. Keep up those touch-points and relationships with your colleagues. Set up a virtual coffee catch-up or reach out via chat!
Have any other working from home wellness tips? Let us know in the comments! Make sure to these tips to help others.
