After using Claude Code I am convinced that future is no IDE. Claude Code runs on your terminal and has access to all terminal tooling. It can even write short scripts for future repetitive tasks. I even use it for running shell commands where I don't remember the exact command.

"Backed by Y Combinator, Void IDE is a fork of Visual Studio Code."
Having used Cursor and Windsurf for projects, and more recently having tried OpenAI Codex, Google Jules, and Claude Code (winner: Claude Code) to build another project, I've mostly landed on the opinion that the "Yet Another VS Code Fork" strategy is an evolutionary dead end.
It turns out that I like my IDE, and that (as far as I've seen) there are virtually no benefits to the wholesale replacement of said IDE. Integration with popular IDEs is welcome, but now that I've experienced both, thinking of repositories rather than replacement AIDEs as the hub for AI assistants just makes so much more sense.

I'm tired. I started hoping github copilot would gain ground just to use vscode again, because Cursor editor experience is a severe downgrade over current vscode (slower, issues with extensions, no settings sync)
