For reference, here is a list of the current main code assistants:
GitHub Copilot
Cursor.sh
Cody
Codeium
Amazon Q (formerly CodeWhisperer)
Pieces (This team is from Cincinnati, deserving a special mention from a fellow Cincinnatian)
Tabnine
Supermaven
Zencoder (waitlist)
Replit's Ghostwriter (not sure if it can be used outside of Replit)
There are also tools that provide a UI for LLM models. While there are many, here are the main ones:
Continue.dev
Tabby
Aider
Double.bot
Additionally, there is "Project IDX" from Google, though I am unsure how to classify it.
- paradite 2y agoFor a different user experience from the tools in the list, I am building 16x Prompt which is a standalone desktop app aimed at streamlining semi-automated AI coding workflow. It is not as well known as the others, but I do have close to 2000 users. https://prompt.16x.engineer/ https://prompt.16x.engineer/
- samstave 2y agoEDIT: ALSO - every one of these tools need to explicitly, in large letters state "This only works if you have a paid account on any AI you want to use" So the prompt wrapper is "free" - but you cant do much with free these days, and you cant seem to use these wrappers without a paid API token to an AI. --- Make it natively work with InstantDBs InstaML/InstaQL. Both ChatGPT and Claude struggle with the actual correct formatting of schemas for InstantDB - but if your thingy can wrangle them to be better... And throw this guyus idea of using Github Gists as a scratchpad for AI to lean on in your workflow outside of the utterly broken Projects/Folders on Chat and Claude. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41359100 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41359100 (Ill give yours a try, but Ive been heavily iterating with Claude on python, fastapi, instant, postgres, etc - and it runs out of context so damn fast (pro acccount, even) and the memory in project files, and artifacts is useless. So on your free account, 10 prompts a day is not enough... though Ill give it a real try before I judge :-)
