Python

Writing Python with Claude: cue me impressed.

The AI starts to be on a level that it saves time even for me, though I consider myself not to need to use AI assistance for Python programing.

Ok, you should try Cursor+Claude. Jump on a codebase, let it index it and it makes really decent code. Provide some little context, some code snippets and it's definitely a timesaver.

It's a fork of VSCode with Claude built-in and enough prompt engineering to allow Claude to have more understanding of the code base it's operating on.

How does it "built-in" - does it upload the whole codebase into Claude?

What I did is that I copy-pasted Python module by hand to Claude and then ask the question

You pick and choose snippets to submit as context, but yes, you can send the whole codebase as context if you want to. Of course, the context window is limited, so this is not very effective in my experience. 

It also has a composer mode for multifile edits, which is handy for refactoring.
