@DevinAI: web-based agent, designed to feel like hiring a software dev - used to cost $500/mo 😱, but now only $20/mo - autonomously completes tasks end-to-end, then opens PRs - easy to spin up multiple Devins simultaneously - Gumroad says Devin writes 41% of their PRs

Aider: the original terminal-based coding agent, 2M installs - high appeal for devs who prefer the command line over IDEs - integrates with pretty much any LLM, not just OpenAI or Anthropic 🧩 - cleverly tuned to adopt the role of someone you're pair programming with

@RepoPrompt: "code prompting app," alternative to code editors - super precise file and context selection ✂️ - pass tons of context, 1-shot tasks, no agent required - the future? devs are ditching IDEs/agents and just using RepoPrompt - native Mac app, Windows/Linux coming
