My experiences with Cline

Cline is an open-source AI-powered coding agent living in VS Code. I find VS Code rather annoying to use compared to Neovim and Zed. Cline is the thing making me keep a resource-hogging instance of VS Code open next to the other two.

KiloCode and Roo Code made it seem like Cline is basically Debian, very conservative and purposefully behind in terms of features.

From my experience that doesn’t seem to be the case. Cline has the most or most competend developers behind it compared to the other VS Code coders, and being mostly upstream from them has some features earlier or plain better than the others.

I like the Question feature where I can select one of a few strategies the LLM came up with.
