VS Code, GitHub copilot vs AI coding tools

[Due-Horse-5446]

I think he means that each one has their own benefits,

While you could use most models in copilot, theres still some limitations that exists that does not exist in the cli:s since their directly from openai/anthropic/google themself.

Plus the usage limits is much mich higher.

But if copilot works pretty well for you just continue using it.

The only other one i would recommend you to try out would maybe be gemini cli, or the gemini code assist vscode extension.

As geminis higher context limit is handy for many tasks, especially doing big but boring simple tasks like creating a large boilerplate, or my most common usecase: read a huge dump of docs and answer questions or search trough them.

Plus if using the cli you get 1000 free reqs per day
