I think this is true regardless of what language you’re using.

I’ve built a lot in Zig and there’s no difference between vibing stuff in it versus TypeScript/React. Claude can “one-shot” them both, and will mimic existing code or grep the standard library to figure everything out.

The code may run but it's rarely idiomatic. For example they almost never define functions inside the struct/union/enum namespace unless it already exists and follows that style, i.e. I expect "foo.bar()" but they make it "FooMod.bar(foo)".
