coding Tools
This is our handpicked selection of coding tools. Whether you're a beginner or a pro, these tools will dramatically improve your workflow.
An autonomous coding agent right inside your VS Code.
An absolute must-have extension for developers who prefer staying within their VS Code environment. Just provide a Claude 3.5 Sonnet API key, and it acts like a fully autonomous junior developer—creating files, running terminal commands, and even self-correcting errors. It's much cheaper than standard web subscriptions and operates directly on your local workspace.
The AI-first Code Editor that actually understands your entire codebase.
This is hands down the best AI code editor I've used. Unlike traditional editors with bolted-on AI plugins, Cursor is AI-native. Features like the Cmd+K inline editing and deep codebase context understanding have massively boosted my productivity. Even if you aren't an expert coder, the Composer feature lets you quickly scaffold complete project prototypes.
Generative UI system that builds React and Tailwind components directly from text prompts.
For frontend development, v0 feels like magic. Instead of manually writing boilerplate UI code, you simply describe what you want (like 'a SaaS pricing dashboard with a dark theme'), and it generates production-ready React and Tailwind code in seconds. It's an incredible time-saver for prototyping and building component libraries.
Want your tool featured in the AI Stack?
We personally review every submission. If you've built an AI tool or app that genuinely helps developers and creators, we'd love to take a look. Send us a brief description and a link to [email protected] — we'll evaluate it and get back to you.
