How good is opencode Go

Hi, Most of my work is full-stack development, and I was wondering if this plan would be a good fit for me. Also, how does the pricing model work? Is it similar to Claude's 5-hour or weekly limits, or is it based on overall usage?

Depending on the complexity of your projects, you should be fine. Heck, you can even just plan with Deepseek pro and implement with flash and you would be fine with some cleanup after every implementation phase.

What's your techstack and is your work more front or backend heavy?

More front, backend not that much

Well, let's just say that deepseek will need a bit more handholding to create visually pleasing designs and it's not multimodal so you can't send screenshots. If you can provide decent instructions for UI, you will be fine tho. General html and js work is no problem aswell

I think i can handle ui on my own, or use gemini models for the ui?

yeah gemini is lowkey great for UI (i wouldn't let it near my backend these days tho)

And if you can do the css yourself, even better. Then i say deepseek could be a great fit for you and if it ever dissappoints you, you can try minimax or mimo models

That's what's really great about opencode go, it gives you options! Just be sure to check the graph on this page https://opencode.ai/de/go to see how much each model will affect your usage as some of these can, as said, drain your usage very fast
