New Apps Include an Unrequested Placeholder Sidebar

Open stevgon opened this issue 4 months ago • 2 comments

Recent apps I’ve created all include a placeholder sidebar by default, even though I never requested one. It can be removed by explicitly asking the agent to do so, but it seems to appear automatically in new projects.

This looks like a base template remnant that isn’t properly accounted for in the template prompt.

Edit: The sidebar is actually hidden behind an icon in the top-left corner, similar to the one in the VibeSDK platform UI itself.

yeah, that maybe because I had integrated sidebar into the homepage of the template itself, in an effort to fix it writing sidebars from scratch and failing, resulting in poor UIs. I guess I would need to improve the templates a bit. Thanks for pointing!

I’m getting this too. I’m building landing pages, not web apps, and it adds in random sidebars like the image above.
