What AI tools are you guys using to code?

[Deleted member 752298]

What AI are you guys using for coding right now? I’m seeing ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, Cody by Sourcegraph, and Replit Ghostwriter get mentioned a lot.

Looking for something that works well with PHP, JS, and WP plugin dev. Bonus if it can suggest improvements and not just autocomplete.

Any personal favorites or tools that actually saved you time? Thanks for the feedback!

Claude AI is one of the most suitable AI tools for coding in my experience

 

[AI Khalifa]

Cursor is the best I've tried

 

[Spicy Chromosomes]

I'm using GitHub Copilot, it's a good one
Cursor is also amazing

 

[Beklink]

I also like Cursor and Claude, however i use Claude mostly for content while i think Cursor is better at coding

You have to have a range of tools I find at hand, as sometimes each of them is amazing, and sometimes each of them is terrible. Luckily I never found a situation where I had all 3 I use be terrible at the same time! lol

I just finished a problem in JS that took chatgpt 2.5 hours of non working, and claude 15 mins, lol although you couldn't say the striker makes up the whole team, its defiantly refreshing to take your code elsewhere all of a sudden and get a quicker answer

Which is best tool that I can hook up open router API to?

I am using ChatGPT at the moment for coding, but looks like I can follow this thread to gain some more knowledge

I use Cursor AI with carefully tailored cursorrules for my tech stack. Most of the time, I work with Claude Sonnet 3.7—it's fast and accurate. When it doesn't cut it, I switch to the ChatGPT model. I use ChatGPT mainly for Q&A tasks in my workflow.

This
I use multi, sometimes 1 will figure out the issue right away, another time it be stuck in loop being completely useless for ages.

Currently have at hand
chatgpt
supergrok
github copilot

considering dropping github to give claude a go since github honestly been the weakest of them all.
Supergrok makes quite alot of mistakes but their reasoning is nice

For PHP I'm using PHPStorm with JetBrains build-in AI Assistance and the recently added coding agent Junie. I also have the Github CoPilot plugin that can make edits.
In terms of models, I'm switching between Sonnet 3.7 and GPT 4o-mini-high.
The new Junie agent seems quite promising (it was released for PHPStorm this week).

Cursor and Trae

 

[Mudasirseo]

Most use ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, Cody, or Replit Ghostwriter. For PHP, JS, and WP plugins, GitHub Copilot works great—it suggests improvements, not just autocomplete. ChatGPT is handy for debugging and explanations. Copilot has saved me the most time overall.

 

[osdiablo]

chatgpt and copilot is all enough

I'm hooking everything up to N8n and Make.com using Apify...

I learned about JSON, SQL, and related terms just in time for this sh*t

deepseek has helped me a lot. especially when debugging and cleaning up code

Gemini is really good, especially to generate a plan or read docs for you. I don't like the windows api documentations at all, and I used Gemini to summarize mostly everything for me. it's also really good at converting C/C++ return types to other languages like Golang so that helps with a lot of otherwise testing time

 

[p3n7357]

I am using chatgpt and claude mostly. In php and laravel I see good results on chatgpt meanwhile in javascript and react native I see way better results on claude ai

 

[jakubbanan]

I used only Cursor PRO - working like diamond doesnt need anything like API with ChatGPT, or Claude - in PRO version you can do anything you want

PS. If somebody want Cursor PRO - I have good offer Very cheap and working very well
