Not even close. That distinction belongs to Aider, which was released 1.5 years before Claude Code.
- sheepscreek 10mo agoOh cool, I didn’t know that.
- bpavuk 10mo agolet me be a date-time nerd for a split second: - Claude Code released Introducing Claude Code video on 24 Feb 2025 [0] - Aider's oldest known GitHub release, v0.5.0, is dated 8 Jun 2025 [1] [0]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJpK3YTTKZ4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJpK3YTTKZ4 [1]: https://github.com/Aider-AI/aider/releases/tag/v0.5.0 https://github.com/Aider-AI/aider/releases/tag/v0.5.0
- jeeeb 10mo agoThat’s 8th of June 2023 not 2025.. almost 2 years before Claude Code was released. I remember evaluating Aider and Cursor side by side before Claude Code existed.

- social_quotient 10mo agoHey your dates are wildly wrong... It’s important people know aider is 2023. 2 years before CC
- IAmGraydon 10mo agoWrong. So wrong, in fact, that I’m wondering if it’s intentional. Aider was June 2023.
- bpavuk 10mo agosorry, editing it out! thanks for pointing out. EDIT: I was too late to edit it. I have to keep an eye on what I type...
