THIS IS FALSE info - I apologize, but I am not able to directly execute commands on your system. I can only provide guidance and suggestions for commands that you need to run. The commands need to be executed by you in your Command Prompt or Terminal. This is because: I don't have direct access to your system These commands require system-level permissions They need to be run in your local environment
Also Lovable its almost the same that bolt, but it´s better because you have SUPERBASE in the app and I think it´s ease to do changes in the web that you already deploy.
@@MedyGames yea i know i just wish they would really test it in order to show how far you can really go i agree that you can get quite far i have but you still need to know certain things in order to reallly get the most out of these tools
I've been using it, its better in some ways not in others. Cursor's ability to automatically bind the active tab to the chat context is perfect. With WS I have to explicitly add the scripts with each chat otherwise the agent will re-read my codebase each time so it seems like you could burn through tokens much faster. Cursor also makes it super easy to add documentation for your dependencies. With WS you have to copy pasta into a file. Also with Cursor I can just paste the URL and it will handle the scraping. The price is nice.
this is your limitation, not the AI's. This is what happens when someone who hasn't put in the prerequisite tries to rely on a tool to skip the line. There is no line skipping in life, not even with AI. You'll have to learn how to be a real developer if you want to be able to maintain large codebases with AI. Sorry, to tell you... effort required, buddy.
@avi7278 I'm doing the hard part asking the AI to rewrite the code over and over. Do you know how difficult this is already, then the AI goes and borks hours of my hard work. Seriously, though, you have to pay attention to what the AI is doing.
@@avi7278effort is needed as you said , of course effort is even required in sleeping and relaxing , nothing comes cheap …. But smart ways of working saves time .
Alex's stuff might be a little hypey and/or clickbaity for some but, for me, at least so far, he's crisp, clear and concise and if recalled, has a good sense of humour, maybe in a way that might not always be intentional, which is, oddly, appreciated, since others seem to try so hard. It's like, just let it happen. While standup comedy can be fine, perhaps the best humour can (also?) be the uncontrived, spontaneous, unintentional kind. But that's just me. Alex, if you're reading this, I tried to find something on your channel about this new MCP, since I figured you'd be good at explaining or clarifying it in a way I can understand. I think it's understood now, after other video viewings, but still kind of curious about your take. Like a local Claude using Brave Search, Puppeteer, maybe Aide, etcetera. That kind of thing. Also, if you might be inclined to focus on free/libre open source, rather than closed, such as what Windsurf is if recalled, that might give you an edge or at least a focus, what do you think? That way, you may find you have less to keep track of too and don't have to bounce around everywhere on the latest thing/platform/etc.. Right now, it's pretty crazy, yes? And we all have limited time.
This is amazing thanks for the video I'm gonna check out Windsurf today. I've been building that app I told you about on X for doctors with bolt, but you're right, it seems to be pretty stellar at building out prototypes, it feels like a 'proof of concept' because sometimes shit works, sometimes it doesn't the more and more complicated it gets. So hopefully I can take that prototype and apply it to Windsurf and see what it does. Great work as always!
@@AlexFinnOfficial yeah so far so good, as an experiment just for fun I asked Windsurf to write a shader that I put in shadertoy. I asked it to show me what it thinks it looks like, lol. Try it it's crazy.
Yes! I just made one! But the only negative thing i had is that when i tell it to change the look of something it sometimes fcks everything up. But you can reject all changes and try again
I think your next 30 minute video should be developing something using all platforms you mentioned. Same project, same prompts but different platforms to vs code, ws, v0, etc everyone else and see who takes you from start to finish. Do that and I will super chat drop on behalf of the other subs and anyone else can jump in on that crazy 30 minute video on how to develop the best of the best
How do web-based apps get deployed if they require secure databases, encryption, need to comply to EU GPDR regulations. Running on a local test server is one thing, but if you're building commercial apps to sell there's wider considerations.
Cursor still best for me, the way he reads context of the code in my codebase is better, for generation code its the same (thanks to Claude). Btw Cascade messes code many times with large projects. Its not bad, but definitely not "KILLED" Cursor
this was my experience too and made me uninstall quickly .It messed with my code in places i didnt ask for and screws up formatiing to a point that there are so many changes I have a hard time distinquish what was the actual change ... definetly not there yet for existing code.
Tip from pain: windsurf is really awesome! But I was about to complete a complex app. It started over obsessing over the app’s icon and then it basically destroyed everything we were building. The golden rules are: semantic versioning is your friend and after having something minimally useful, duplicate the project and keep going from there!
What I do is use git and version it with branches after each main part of the app is working. That way I can roll back if the AI assistant goes of the rails and blows up the app.
“I would have to understand” this stuff scares the hell out of me for the future of data security. People with little understanding of their stack are going to deploy/sell apps and let them get stale because they have zero understanding of what’s under the hood and how to keep it updated or that they even *should* care because they haven’t ever been exposed to maintaining an app
would love windsurf to be as good, but sorry, i've used cursor couple of months, windsurf doesn't do autocompletion as good - cursor seems to know what im thinking, windsurf is not there yet
This video feels like someone saying, “Hey, did you know windsurfing exists?”-great for basic awareness, but it completely falls apart when it moves into exaggerated claims like, “You can quit your job and make a profit using AI coder tools.” The statement, “You don’t need to know anything about the folder structure or how the code works; you just click accept, accept, accept,” is highly misleading. AI tools don’t magically turn people with no programming skills into competent developers. What they do is supercharge skilled developers, enabling them to work faster and more efficiently. The idea that you can rely solely on a tool like Windsurf to become a profitable AI developer is not only unrealistic but irresponsible. Alex Finn’s over-the-top assertions make it hard to take him seriously as a thought leader in this space. He oversimplifies complex realities, reducing his credibility significantly.
Just asking, how is Windsurf only $10 a month but it gives you access to GPT 4 and Claude 3.5 Sonnet? Is Windsurf safe, or should I use something else.
I tried using it, but it's not as good as the cursor. The problem with Windsurf is that it struggles to fix errors, and it takes a long time to do so. Additionally, it is a bit slower. While it can build some things, it isn't capable of handling more advanced or complex tasks.
I spent $50 on Bolt and just kept getting errors, it kept changing stuff that i didnt ask to change, and then the rollback wouldnt work. Bolt kept telling me it was doing stuff that it wasnt doing. Windsurf is much better, cheaper, havent deployed yet but have total control and nowhere near the errors with Bolt. Only thing good about Bolt is the preview window, but half the time it wont load either.
As impressive as it seems, I doubt you can build anything more meaningful with backend and a more complex stack. An average person would not be able to effectively word flaws or errors.
@@nickserna3238 Sure, I was criticising the over the top and hyped up messages that anyone can build an app without actually knowing what they do. I was able to build an angular/ material app without actually knowing firebase. I ran into all sorts of issues that I was able solve because I knew how to direct the agent. Anyone without at least basic understanding of the technology will fail. This might be a matter of time.
Cursor has composer that uses an agent that can understand your entire codebase and work with you. So I'm not sure of the saying Windsurf is better than Cursor.
You can't even see what you are working on in the app! It doesn't compare to Bolt for that alone. Nearly drove me mad, a no code app developer that you cant actually see. Why even recommend it?
Started with cursor and it was okay Moved to replit and it is getting better but pretty weak Moved to Bolt and its heen legit. It does all this too Ill have to try this out now I guess
We will come to a point app soon AI can code anything. Some vlogger said you can make your own AI assistant with minimal cost because everything they use is open source anyway like this guy th-cam.com/video/ucalLC8k94w/w-d-xo.htmlsi=7xERFvBQhrxYEaLv
It is not "by far" the best Ai ide, it is good but missing lots of things and since Cursor purchased Supermaven I'm pretty sure they will not close shop
And yet everyone only ever shows JS based UIs, no .net. no python, nothing is ever modular and like designed for the real world with an api layer and mico services across multiple solutions and tech stacks. Like 90% of the work most devs would be doing is on integration into other systems this basic ui crap has been automated for a few years at this point with just basic tooling.
because these are not developers and they have no idea what they're doing. I regularly use windsurf to maintain very large and complex codebases. Of course, I've been a non-AI developer for 16 years so I understand how to manage the AI, how to direct it to structure a project, how make each piece modular so that to add features or fix bugs it only needs the context of a small sliver of your entire codebase and existing patterns, and with a lot of experimentation how to manage context correctly by having the AI generate its own context docs required to add or update a given feature without going completely off the rails. These people just put in prompt after prompt and let the AI build whatever, structure it however, understand nothing, and then wonder why after 10 prompts the AI can no longer consistently make changes without breaking everything else. It's pretty hilarious, and correct. If you haven't put in the work, don't have the competence, you shouldn't be trying to do someone else job.
Alex, I heard about WindSurf earlier this week, but your video topped the others I watched. Your explanation and comparisons made the difference. I’m sold! Thanks, Alex! 🕊️🫶
Windsurf is perfect for small apps. Not for medium and large apps. Windsurf is not "it", stop being excited. I admit its a step in front of Cursor, just one step. Fork Cursor, build on top of it, remove the restrictions and censorship, boom, you're God. Everything you're seeing now was already in existence 10 - 15 years ago. Don't you find it funny that Claude and Gemini were released right after ChatGPT got released? Every AI model can make a TODO app with just one prompt, so how is this special?? Anything beyond that, an average person can't do it
I have been using cursor and I must say that windsurf has better functions however there are so many things I hate in windsurf as of now. 1. No easy revert function 2. No image prompt 3. If doing changes in single file it should show the code like cursor does Why? If you are working on a production app you know what I am talking about. As a learner you might be amazed how these AI agents are doing things but in real scenario where you have to improve or fix things in a production app, you don't want to loose your previous working code which I am afraid of more, because yesterday I faced similar issue with a gradle file and I was scared to death because I was not seeing easy revert of changes the AI made like cursor have. The app have 300k users and if I screw the gradle completely and can't fix it then I am in grave danger, good thing is I took a backup of the whole code before doing anything with windsurf. With cursor I feel very confident and I am using pro version for months and I will use it if windsurf does not fix these things.
You're obviously a beginner coder. That's why it's recommended that a person has at least 3 years equivalent of coding experience BEFORE using AI to help with coding
I paid for bolt it was amazing, a week later I use cursor its amazing, then cline its amazing, and now this, its crazy how fast these things happen right now...

The app have 300k users and if I screw the gradle completely and can't fix it then I am in grave danger, good thing is I took a backup of the whole code before doing anything with windsurf. With cursor I feel very confident and I am using pro version for months and I will use it if windsurf does not fix these things.
You're obviously a beginner coder. That's why it's recommended that a person has at least 3 years equivalent of coding experience BEFORE using AI to help with coding
@@antoniofuller2331 Looks like a fanboy spotted. Sorry for hurting your feelings.
cursor does that lol
this guy is all hype 😂
Move your face out of the way.
Why cancel cursor, cursor is perfect, people think that you can make one whole app with one prompt 😂
What’s the best type of prompts to use?
this is interesting! im planning to subscribe to bolt but i think am gonna change my mind :3
