The way we write code and create apps is being completely transformed by AI code editors. You can just ask AI assistants to resolve problems rather than searching forums or digging.
My go-to tool for making fast edits and creating tutorial applications is the Cursor code editor.
Cursor
Windsurf
Despite being new, the Windsurf is fast becoming my favorite tool. It has many of the same features as Cursor, but it looks different.
VSCode
VSCode recently declared that GitHub Copilot will no longer be available as an extension and will be integrated directly into the code editor, making it free for all users.
Zed
Zed is the talk of the developer community because it was created entirely with the Rust programming language and is meant to be incredibly fast.
PearAI
Similar features to Cursor and Windsurf are provided by the PearAI, which is based on VSCode.
