Could you comment your favorite features of the tool you use?

    There are many good extensions with somewhat similar features, the ideal extension might come down to personal preference but I've been building double.bot [0] after spending months using Github Copilot and running into the same bugs over and over (wrote about it here [1]) and I think we've done a good job at building the ideal extension for professional developers.

    I use codeium.com - chose it mainly because it has solid plugins for Xcode and VS Code.

    I’m staying away from any ai extensions.
