Claude Code Integration & Context
Users are discussing Claude Code's smooth integration with VS Code, its potential advantage in context compaction compared to Copilot, and its impact on development workflows.
Most people outside X don't even know what a coding agent is. They've never heard of Claude Code or Codex. You're not behind.
Honestly I haven’t found a real alternative yet VS Code is just easier to use Copilot Codex Claude Code all work smoothly with it and the results feel more consistent The model workflows and the UI are already familiar so it doesn’t really break the flow
Surprised how quickly I went from developing iOS apps with Xcode to now doing everything in VS Code + Sweetpad + Claude Code or OpenCode.
