Reviewer scorecard
“This is my daily driver. The codebase awareness is unreal — it understands project structure, conventions, and dependencies without being told. Multi-file refactors just work.”
“Non-negotiable for any serious component library. Visual testing, docs, and interaction testing in one place.”
“Rate limits are the only downside. When it's running smoothly, it's the best coding assistant available. When you hit limits, you're stuck waiting. Plan for that.”
“Setup can be painful and builds are slow, but the alternative — no component isolation — is worse.”
“The terminal-first approach was the right call. Developers live in their terminal. This isn't an IDE plugin — it's an AI-native development environment.”
“The best way to browse and understand a design system. Addons for accessibility and responsive testing are invaluable.”
