AI Coding Tools
Hands-on comparisons and honest breakdowns of AI coding tools — editors and agents like Cursor, Claude Code and Codex, and prompt-to-app builders like Lovable, Bolt and Replit. We look at what each one actually does well, where it falls short, and what it really costs once tokens, subscriptions and lock-in are factored in.
If you're choosing where to spend your time and budget, this is the section that maps the fast-moving tooling landscape so you can pick the right stack for your workflow instead of chasing hype.
