The App that Builds Mobile Apps→ https://vibecode.go.link/iEsLU Is Claude Code really the best AI coding tool right now? In this episode, I sit down with AI dev expert Ras Mic to break down Claude Code vs Cursor, Windsurf, Codex, and more. You’ll get a full walkthrough of why Claude Code is outperforming other AI coding agents, how it's built differently, and what it’s like to actually ship a real app with it from start to finish. We also talk SDKs, code review tools like Devon and CodeRabbit, and what the future of developer tooling looks like when model providers build the tools themselves.
