--- visibility: public --- # VS Code current primary editor. won the IDE war not on editing merits but on AI integration — the [[Claude Code]] extension made it the best environment for agent-assisted development. **installed via:** `brew install --cask visual-studio-code` **previously used:** [[Zed]], [[Windsurf]], [[Cursor]] — each had strengths but Claude Code's VS Code extension tipped the balance. **terminal editor:** `micro` is the quick-edit default (set as `$EDITOR` and `$VISUAL`). VS Code is for when you need a full IDE alongside [[Claude Code]].
