Favorite LLM coding tools besides chat-interface(s) and OpenAI/Claude-Sonnet

Hi all, I've been using the chat-based LLMs: OpenAI and Claude-Sonnet for coding. I'm mostly using Rust. They are both great tools.

But, I want to know about the best tools for LLM powered coding.

I think I'd prefer a tool integrated with VS Code.

BUT, TELL ME, WHAT DO YOU USE? What's your favorite tool for LLM-Coding?

There are some interesting options:

  * Codeium  
  * Tabnine  
  * Supermaven  
  * GitHub Copilot

All of these have plugins for VS Code. However, my preferred approach is using an LLM with the Zed editor. You just need to provide an API key of your LLM (GPT-4O in my case). I find the chat panel alongside my code incredibly useful. Additionally, the ability to apply inline transformations to selected code with custom prompts is really useful.

Well, as the original poster, I did happen to find this a little while later: https://www.cursor.com/blog/series-a

command-line driven, you give commands, the system directly changes your code and commits the changes so you can easily go back.
