I went into this video blind-I had never used this IDE before. 🧑🦯 I don't falsely advertise, so this is an honest review of Windsurfr.😎 I hope you had a better experience. Let me know if you've tried it!🫵
Thanks a lot for this comment, brother! Yeah, I kind of had to stop giving code assistants easy-to-do tasks and start using them for real-world projects, even if they’re small ones.
I find that it helps to ask cascade to analyze your code base, or file before asking it to to make changes. And then make sure it understands the task before having it write anything. Switching to chat chat mode seems to help with this, then you should be able to get it to do the task, and even split it up into smaller files (in case you need it to make changes to the file)
"I think it's just a bug on the API side because I tried it after the video. Sometimes it works, but the results aren't that great. Sometimes it just keeps looping over the prompt.
@@Codewello He is right. Its like comparing two different cars with different engines. You cannot do that. To make it clear, put the weakest LLM that there is in Cline and watch the results. You will not expect them to be great. Do you? To compare the tools, you should let them use the same LLM.
@@KostasOreopoulos He used 3.5 sonnet in Windsurf so that should have given better results than haiku 3.5 in Cline but it did not. So he is saying the logic in windsurf itself is inferior to the logic in Cline even though they both use some version of Claude. One handles the models better
something not right about the input height element with Windsurf, it fix that when i write "re-design the form and make it sleek for better visibility"
i have done something using this windsurf, and its work great for me. also i having a good experience while using it instead of cursor. maybe in your case something is broken ? i realize some problem there... 1. i think the problem is because you mentioning a different file from outside the project you have loaded at the first ( you load travel-airline project, but mentioning airline-travel project ?), as a human, i also might confused by this way, cause it will need to read the blade template, also blade template using @extends, @section and else so it will ruined the prompts i guess. 2. Windsurf proccess has interupted by something, might be an internet issue ? or there is a bug on their proccess (idk either) 3. Cline is giving you the good result because its perform the Jsx that already generated within the same project (as i mentioned at 1st point) so it will just fix your needs, perhaps ? 4. you should try your windsurf to a new context to reset its brain.
Actually, I tried working with it after finishing the video, but I still face issues sometimes. I’m not sure why it keeps getting stuck on the same task. I can’t tell if the problem is on the API side or the IDE side.
Sometimes I wish there was less AI content , some are good more are worse but everything has it flaws. I agree that cline gives the best overall experience but wait until you come to a point where you point the frontend to the backend it still can hallucinate and then your on your own.. Im still learning but some things really makes sense now its a deep learning curve after all
Okay, can you give me an idea? What if I created a video that covers both backend and frontend development? Also, what other types of content would you like to see besides AI?
@@Codewello yes, do a video on the best practices on getting cline to do proper frontend design for an already developed backend. Cline messes up alot of things sometimes. but then sometimes i realize the prompt may have been too complex. simpler prompts seems to work better for front end if the backend is already developed. idk
cline and windsurf are the 2 best of the best (they both seem to handle) and both beat cursor by far....and half price ..yip cursor killer indeed. also cline was beating cursor for a while ...try and see its very stable

That's what I call a thick eastern european accent! Great content bro, subscribed!.
Watching from Ireland!
OMG, my first subscriber from Ireland! Hello! 😄
i liked the real world example project. Most TH-camrs are doing To-Do Apps which I hate.
I keep trying these kinds of real-world examples, and it seems like you guys enjoy them
yes, very pointless use case are littered on youtube
Really great video - thank you! Nice to see a real-practical example instead of making a todo list!

How should this be better in coding when using exakt same AI model claude ? 😅
I'm not sure what you mean. I'm not comparing the models; I'm comparing the logic behind code assistants.
@@Codewello it is the model claude which is used for coding for both. So how could they be different.
@@Codewello He is right. Its like comparing two different cars with different engines. You cannot do that. To make it clear, put the weakest LLM that there is in Cline and watch the results. You will not expect them to be great. Do you?

i really need something that is very much like windsurf but that can use ollama or gemini flash etc free stuff
something not right about the input height element with Windsurf, it fix that when i write "re-design the form and make it sleek for better visibility"
I think it's an API issue. From what I've seen, every other video using it to build simple apps works perfectly with it.
@@Codewello sometimes it goes stupid, after doing something good it start trash acting lol🤣
thanks
You are most welcome 😁

There is an upcoming editor called Melty that seems to be an open-source alternative to all these AI-powered IDEs.
مش عارف ليه عندي احساس انك مصري :D
احساسك صح😁
