       | 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 a wholesale replacement of
       | said IDE. Integration with popular IDEs is welcome, but
       | repositories as the hub for tools just makes so much more _sense_
       | now that I 've experienced both.
