Recently I’ve been playing around with AI-generated code to create some simple prototypes. Mainly, I’ve used Gemini 3 pro (web interface, no API), for one-shot code generation and for the first time I’ve been impressed. Additionally, in the last VSCode update, I left copilot active, and I must say it is somewhat helpful (although at times also annoying). Now, I’m wondering, from those of you that have developed a workflow where you have AI-code-generation integrated, what tools do you use? What LLM providers delivers you the best results? I have no GPU, and programming is not my main job (that is, every few weeks or so, I need to write code for several days), so I prefer something that does not require any heavy upfront investment in time/infrastructure. Anyone using Helix editor?
