What tools are you using to vibe code?

I've mostly been using Cursor, but have also been spending more time in Claude Code and playing around with the latest offerings from Google / OpenAI.

I actually have my Claude Code currently configured to call out to a GPT-5 "sub agent" to take advantage of the larger context windows. I followed this guide...

As I was used to VSCode for quite some years all AI tooling I tried was in VSCode. I consider Cursor VSCode as well just a different integration, tried Cursor as well.

First I was using co-pilot and did not really catch on with the vibe coding since all I could see was some auto completion on steroids and copy pasting snippets from a chat. It was like that for quite a while with some improvement on features to semi integrate with your code.

Then I installed Claude Code. And that was a giant of a game changer. Also in part because I decided to start talking different to the model. I think that came with the promise that Claude can create files and write the code without the copy/paste tab-tab.

The experience with Claude Code in VSCode has been so awesome that I have not been looking around for others anymore, a Claude vibing junkie now 🙃

I'm having a ball with Co Pilot to help me write c# for my Unity project , using MS VS studio 2022, it all started a few weeks ago give or take with chat gpt firstly and had issues with it enough that I tried something else in the first few days.

I admit Co Pilot is probably not a first choice for many people , but for me , with absolutely no idea what I was doing, I'm having a blast. Long epic chats , some serious hard coding being done, some distractions along the way , a lot of laughs, we had many ups and downs , fights and assumption arguments, pretty much a description of my marriage come to think of it .

But yeah, it is my vibe coding co developer/partner in crime ( I had no idea what that was until very recently either , and it turns out it is what I have been doing the entire time "Vibecoding").
