Today, we're checking out a new AI Coding Assistant, which is pretty impressive and may replace my usage of things like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and Windsurf. Augment Code is an extension for VSCode, as well as for various JetBrains IDS.

Augment Code is a new AI coding assistant designed to integrate with VS Code and various JetBrains IDEs. It excels in managing and making productive changes in larger codebases rather than building projects from scratch. Key features include fast context-aware code generation, instant code syncing, and comprehensive indexing. It offers a free version, which allows unlimited usage but trains on user data, and paid versions that secure user code. Augment Code is noted for its speed and efficiency compared to other AI assistants like GitHub Copilot and Wind Surf.

This Free AI Coding Assistant Might Destroy Cursor...

If a paid version does not uses User data, I’d would give it a try.

Sooo basically they just make a custom instructions file so you get more relevant suggestions. That’s cool but I already do that myself 😂
Just doesn’t seem that revolutionary 👌🏻
