I'm surprised continue.dev isn't getting a mention here. I've tried copilot, cody, and cursor, and ultimately came back to continue.dev. I can use my own models, api key, etc. The same VSCode setup I'm used to, custom context providers, doc indexing, etc. It's proven to be extremely useful for me - though I use it less for autocomplete, and more for interactive back-and-forth sessions to arrive at a block of code.

Very poor quality and short comparison. Not worth a read.

I was hoping to hear their thoughts on how Copilot and Cursor compare to Aider, but this is the whole Aider section:

  Aider Chat is an exciting CLI alternative:
  
    - Mature and open-source
    - Command-line based
    - Requires a deeper mental model but offers powerful capabilities
    - Perfect for those who prefer terminal-based workflows

Copilot was the first mover, but other tools (built on worse models!) can do just as well.

Until one product becomes clearly better, the code AI ecosystem might just churn and churn and churn.

Wondering why Phind is not more commonly considered, integration with VS Code is stellar, and the quality is pretty good.

Is there any code assistant that can parse entire big codebases and help me implement a “story”?
