Seems to be a dupe of another Show HN post posted by the same user 4 days ago https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41523197
We did a smaller launch a few days ago, but we've actually made a lot of changes to our github contributing page, website, logo since then (based on the feedback). Just trying to ship fast, haha.

#83Genuine question: why don’t you started from VSCodium if the the VSCode is too much hassle to deal with?

Doesn't sound like it warrants another post.

#88Oh, I’m yet to find a good alternative to Cursor’s RAG-powered side chat. It helps me work with huge codebases so much. Tried Continue, but it’s very unstable, and doesn’t work as well. Would prefer a command line solution, vscode plugin is the next choice, having a separate editor is not ideal, but I’m glad there’s some competition.
Aider lets you pair program with LLMs, to edit code in your local git repository. Start a new project or work with an existing git repo. Aider works best with GPT-4o & Claude 3.5 Sonnet and can connect to almost any LLM.
See LLM Leaderboards as well: https://aider.chat/docs/leaderboards/

> Would prefer a command line solution I haven't tried this myself so I apologize if it ends up being bad, but I've seen Aider [0] get linked a few times from people who wanted a CLI solution for AI code completion. [0]: https://aider.chat/
Aider is really cool for small projects, but it builds a repo map instead of using RAG. That works on small codebases, but totally fails to be useful on large ones.
In use, treesitter-derived approach seems far effective than rag.

#90Why is this a Show HN not a launch HN? Is it simply a concept and not yet fleshed out? Hard sell to choose you especially as a full on editor replacement (as well as a copilot replacement) without a demo or even gifs.
