What is the best Vibe Coding tool so far? Bonus points if we've never heard of it!
by•
I might be missing some but I've been pretty much in love with @Lovable, @Cursor, @bolt.new and have been trying to use @Replit more and I honestly haven't touched @BASE44 too much but have heard good things. @chrismessina has nudged me to use @Windsurf for whenever I build another Raycast Extension!
Currently I use:
- @bolt.new / @Lovable
- @Cursor
- @Warp
Curious what everyone thinks is the top one so far!

@Cursor is what I've ended up using now for 9 months or more - and I'm very satisfied with the experience after trying GH Copilot, WindSurf and initially just using ChatGPT and having to manually paste code into editors like WebStorm (that was in early 2024). I have moved my whole dev team to Cursor and productivity has accelerated tremendously. My own personal workflow involves using vzero.dev from @Vercel to create UI mockups (it is one of the best tools for that) and I use screenshots of the mockups to help drive Cursor to create entire components (and even 2 full apps!). I've written up some notes on my workflow on my blog here if that is helpful (https://www.robotmunki.com/blog/ai-coding-workflow).
@Zed with Claude is awesome!

what's retention on Lovable?

I'm surprised no one's mentioning @Claude for code completion and suggestions - it's been a game-changer for me in terms of productivity. Its AI-driven suggestions are often more accurate than those of @Replit or @Lovable. Has anyone else tried integrating it with their IDE of choice?

Really depends what you are trying to achieve.
My team uses @Cursor daily and can't speak highly enough of it.
I use @Lovable if I want really quick proof of concept stuff - but I'm not a fan of the code it spits out. If it's a larger project that needs design/prototyping then we start with @UXPin Merge of course.
I need to dive into @Replit and @bolt.new a little more.
I'm just learning but used to do a lot of QA for developers and wished I knew how to code. But I'm a hairdresser / computer geek :-)

I know nothing about coding, yet I built my own food recommendation app using vibe coding—thanks to @Cursor
