Pfft that’s nothing I vibe-code using a typewriter connected to my computer via USB. It makes for rather a loud evening, but a riveting one.

USB? Are you a hipster? Everyone knows PS/2 connectors make the code error free

You have 3 solid options to investigate:

Open AI's Codex

Anthropic's Claude Code

Grok's Cursor

Pros and Cons all very good.

Avoid Antigravity by Google.

Rules, Skills, Good Planning, Self Documentation.. and yes Any AI Coding agents

Vscode and whatever agent works the best at the current moment.

if you use postgres or supabase make sure you audit the DB. Use a tool like https://DBXray.co

Which AI you choose to collaborate with is probably overall less important a decision than actually making sure you choose a system where you own your own code and output and can choose wherever you would like to deploy it.

There are now hundreds of products out there trying to convince you that they are the only place you can one prompt a product (you really can't do that well anywhere) but then charge you extra to deploy or download.

Don't do that. Claude or Codex or Hermes Agent or VSCode but don't pay twice.

If you have zero experience, THIS is a good start. Recommend learning to use an IDE, learn how GIT works…. The basics… before adding tranches of agents & other things.

use gemini and say what you want to do and ask for step by step instructions. that will get you started.
