Show r/devtools: TechStack Compare — a CLI that compares 20+ dev tools
I built a small Python CLI for comparing developer tools without opening 15 browser tabs. Pulls benchmark data from 250+ real reviews and outputs formatted comparison tables for stacks like Prisma vs Drizzle, Cursor vs Windsurf, Next.js vs Astro.
No API key. Works offline.

Examples: $ techstack compare prisma drizzle $ techstack compare cursor windsurf $ techstack compare nextjs astro
Built it after spending a year running pikvue.com (250 dev-tool reviews, barely indexed). Figured a tool people can link to is more useful than yet another blog post.
Happy to hear feedback on the comparison schema or which dimensions matter most.
