The Modern Code Director's Stack - Part 2: Finding My Perfect AI Pair Programmer After yesterday's v0.dev UI prototyping post, let me share my journey finding the right AI coding companion. It's been quite a ride! Started with ChatGPT - mind-blowing at first. Great for problem-solving and explaining concepts, but context switching was killing my flow. Copy-pasting code back and forth felt... clunky. Tried Claude next. Loved the longer context window and more nuanced responses. But still felt like I was coding in a chat app rather than my IDE. Then I discovered Cursor AI. Game. Changer. 🎯 Why it stuck: - Lives right in my VS Code workflow - Understands my entire codebase context - Quick inline suggestions - Smart file navigation - Can explain and modify code in real-time The killer feature? Being able to highlight a chunk of code and say "refactor this to use TypeScript" or "add error handling here" - and watch it transform right there. Tomorrow I'll share my cloud architecture setup! What's your go-to AI coding companion? Still hunting for the perfect one? Give it a try at www.cursor.com #AIprogramming #CursorAI #CodeTools #DeveloperTools #TechStack
GitHub Workspace tyckte jag var riktigt bra, önskar bara att de utökade stöd för andra repo-källor än github

1moBiggest disadvantage of Cursor is that they forked VS Code. I prefer to wait for GitHub Spark which will run on "usual" VS Code. But all videos with Cursor look promising.
