Hey everyone! I’m a freelance dev looking to switch from raw VS Code to an AI-powered setup. Been hearing a lot about Cursor, Windsurf (formerly Codeium), and CoDev. Which one is actually worth the subscription? Budget is fine if the tool is good enough.

Dev here. Cursor is best overall, but pricey. Windsurf is good free alternative. If you’re serious about coding, just get Cursor. The time you save is worth it.

Full breakdown after testing all three for 2 months:

Cursor: Best code completion, Great Chat feature, Can be expensive.

Windsurf: Free tier is actually usable, Good for beginners, Less powerful than Cursor.

My pick: Cursor for serious devs. Worth the $20/mo.
