Its great that cursor is working for you. I do think LLMs in general are far far better on Typescript and Python compared to other languages (reflects from the training data) What features of cursor were the most compelling to you? I know t

In my previous life at Facebook, I worked on the infra team and worked on a cluster manager similar to kubernetes, thats where I first heard the term sidecar. Something about the concept of a binary running alongside the pod powering other

I would take that as a compliment, big fan of Zed (I hope their extension ecosystem allows for us to plugin sidecar into Zed soon) Tbh I did try out their implementation and it still feels early, one of the key difference we went for was to

Oh for sure! I do want to talk about how rust really helped us so many times when doing refactors or building new features, part of the reason why we were able to iterate so quickly on the AI side of things and ship features

oh, I see your point now. Its weird that they are not doing the search and replace style editing. Altho now that OpenAI also has Predicted Output, I think this will improve and it won't make mistakes while rewriting longer files. The 6

what was so bad about it? genuinely curious cause they did make quite a bit of noise about the integration.

I know... we could have built something free form ground up (like zed did) but we had to pick a battle between building a new editor from the grounds up or building from a solid foundation (VSCode) We are a small team right now (4 of us) an

I can give my broader feedback: - Codegen tools today are still not great: The lack of context and not using LSP really burns down the quality of the generated code. - Autocomplete is great Autocomplete is pretty nice, IMHO it helps finish

fork was necessary for the UX we wanted to go for. I do agree that an extension can also satisfy your needs (and it clearly is in your case) Having a deeper integration with the editor allows for some really nice paradigms: - Rollbacks feel

There are quite a few things! VSCode's direction (I am making my own assumptions from the learnings I have) - VSCode is working on the working set direction of making multi-file edits work - Their idea of bringing in other extension is

Fair point! We are not taking a stab at cursor in any way (its a great product) In terms of features I do believe we are differentiated enough, the workflows we came up with are different and we are all about giving back the data (prompt+re
