If I understand your question correctly - Cline and Roo both display diffs by using built-in VS Code components, while Cursor/Windsurf/Void have built their own custom UI to display diffs. Very small detail, and just a matter of p

Big fan of Continue btw! There's a small difference in how we handle inline edits - if you've used inline edits in Cursor/Windsurf/Void you'll notice that a box appears above the text you are selecting, and you can

I really wonder why dynamic learning hasn't been explored more. It would be a huge moat for the labs (everyone would have to host and dynamically train their own model with a major lab). Seems like it would make the AI way smarter too.

Local models just aren't there yet in terms of being able to host locally on your laptop without extra hardware. We're hoping that one of the big labs will distill an ~8B to ~32B parameter model that performs SOTA benchmarks! This

This is a great suggestion. We're actually storing the input/output costs of most models, but aren't computing cost estimates yet. Definitely something to add. My only hesitation is that token-based cost estimates may not be

You're right that extensions do manage fine - the main differences right now are UX improvements (many of them are mentioned above). I can see the differences compounding at some point which is why we're focused on the full IDE si

The extensions API lets you control the sidebar, but you basically don't have control over anything in the editor. We wouldn't have been able to build our inline edit feature, or our navigation UI if we were an extension.

Void actually launched before the Windsurf IDE existed! http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42127882 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41563958

Thanks for the suggestions - these issues have been a bit painful for us, and we will probably fix them in the next major update to Void. Believe it or not, the logo similarity was actually unintentional, though I imagine there was subconsc

This is a good question. Because we're open source, we will always allow you to host models locally for free, or use your own API key. This makes monetization a bit difficult in the short term. As with many devtool companies, the long-

One of the founders here - Void will always remain open source! There are plenty of examples of an open source alternative finding its own niche (eg Supabase, Mattermost) and we don't see this being any different.

We do have a linux build! (the link is at the bottom of the download page). Some systems are a bit finicky so we give more options on setting it up.

We've been holding off on this until Void is out of Beta.

We did a smaller launch a few days ago, but we've actually made a lot of changes to our github contributing page, website, logo since then (based on the feedback). Just trying to ship fast, haha.

We plan on selling to enterprise companies. We know a lot of companies want to keep their repos private and so we offer them on-prem hosting options. Closed source tools can't really do this because they have to keep their prompt build

One feature you could add is allowing the user to map changes in the concatenated file back to the original files. For example, if an LLM edits the concatenated file, I would want it to return the corresponding filenames and line numbers of
