Curl is great, but I think you're vastly underestimating the surface area of CC.
It looks like it has more in: editor integrations, multiple guis and tuis, config variations, external systems (eg, git, mcps, curl-like requests?), statefulness (curl is "only" request response), inner runtimes (eg, sandbox per OS), sensitivity to its environment, possible side effects of its own execution, potential interaction combinations, etc.
Curl has hard system-level code requirements but it's design space feels more bounded and predictable to me.
This of course isn't an excuse for all bugs.
- slopinthebag 10d agoyes but there is a big difference between 100 sloppy features vs a handful of strongly and safely executed ones. it's not linear in effort.
- brazukadev 10d ago> I think you're vastly underestimating the surface area of CC. That is one of the reasons CC code is so low quality. The amount of extra unnecessary code just to implement it using React is by far the worst technical slop decision I've seen made by so called "software engineers" in a long time.
