“Fastest editor I've ever used. Native performance, real-time collab, and the AI integration is well-designed.”
“Fast but the extension ecosystem is small compared to VS Code. You'll miss plugins you depend on.”
“The next-gen editor built for AI and collaboration. Rust performance advantage over Electron is real.”
