It appears to be a VSCode fork, and supports VSC marketplace extensions, so I would guess Electron

#72Bro the West is getting cooked by China right now. We might be fucked. Everything that has been coming out of China is better than anything our mega trillion dollar corporation are producing and they are doing with with sanctions on the best GPUs. I don't work in big tech, why are they so bad with sigifically more money and more advanced technology? Google had a decade and a half head start and they can't even produc…
At the forefront of our politicians’ minds are how many genders there are. In the UK just building a new high speed railway has practically been the Manhattan project. Will we get back on track? I think the chances of that are rapidly diminishing.

I've tried Zed and Ghostty and I just don't really get the speed thing. Typing latency is extremely unnoticeable in VS Code/Cursor and other Electron apps for me.

#75Side note, but I hate that we're moving to a world where coding costs a subscription. I fell in love with coding because I could take my dad's old Thinkpad, install Linux for free - fire up Emacs and start hacking without an internet connection. We're truly building walls everywhere.
>but I hate that we're moving to a world where coding costs a subscription I mean you don't need to if you don't want to. I am gainfully employed as a software developer and what I do everyday is literally just fire up Emacs on my Linux machine and write code. To this day I haven't figured out what llms are supposed to do that a bunch of yasnippets don't. Just like five years ago most of my day is reading and debuggi…

#76I feel like I'm taking crazy pills, because every time I try to use AI for any of my projects - including the "better" Anthropic and OpenAI models, I get terribly written, buggy code that has nothing to do with the domain or question. Unless I'm feeding it actual softball, single function questions it adds almost no value to my dev cycle. Mind you, all of this terrible code also costs a ton in tokens. It's sad becaus…

According to the Discord, Claude 3.5 Sonnet and OpenAI GPT-4o. Also according to the Discord, "SPRING (SG) PTE. LTD. or one of its affiliates" is fully subsidizing the costs. This doesn't look like a bring your own keys type of deal.
If it's truly talking to OpenAI or Claude, then the traffic can be intercepted and redirected to your own AI router for other cloud AI providers or your local Ollama instance.

Haven’t tried Trae. Is it objectively better than cursor? I felt this statement might be premature. US is still leading in software and AI space.
The chat UX is definitely better than Cursor. It less janky and I like that it wait until generation is done before asking you if you want to apply the suggested the changes instead of loading them into your file right after like cursor does. Also you can apply at cursor which is nice for snippets. The Builder tool is probably the best feature of Trae. It builds React UIs better than any tool even v0 which is built f…

Would you choose this over JetBrains?
It's basically a better Fleet. In fact, it's if Fleet and VS Code had a baby lol.
