Gemini is good (and mostly free). It has a larger context window so that's helpful for big docs.

"Claude requires you to type "continue" every couple minutes."
Some apps like @msty.app as Continue built-in. That way you don't have to type and the subsequent responses are "stitched" together.

I hear ya! What model(s) are you using?

Just had a chat with my manager from my previous consulting gig. Because of new admin + tariffs + and partially AI, their clients are not starting any new projects, which means, in his words "we are doing our biggest layoffs of all time & my job is on the line". I feel bad for everyone letting go.

Yet another day I regret using LangChain. If you ever write an AI app, just stay out of it!

Reddit post from 2 years ago; same issue (minus Monorepo) www.reddit.com/r/WebStorm/c...

Ya, some Reddit posts saying the same thing. It’d be a sad day if I moved on though. I advocate for it everywhere I go, and always make my work pay for it (even though I already have a personal license), I have fought with my colleagues about it and converted at least a few. Filed a ticket, will see

It has gone slower over the time. I have enabled Use types from server as well (as recommended on YT and Reddit). Memory is not an issue (dedicated 64GB!! just for WS). Will DM you. This is painful so please help 😭

Seriously thinking of switching to VSCode after being a loyal user of JetBrains+Webstorm for a decade. TypeScript is just too damn slow! If vim binding in VSCode was any decent, I'd probably have switched by now. How come WS so slow to show TS errors/hints compared to VSCode?

Navajo alarmed by reports of Indigenous people caught up in Trump immigration raids Group takes steps to protect members after ‘traumatizing’ reports of people being stopped or detained by agents

Oh, the irony! Not going to lie, it has been 16 years in the US and for the first time I am a bit concerned about this situation for myself and my family. Something about this time it makes me feel not so good.

When I read the news, the first thing that came to mind was you and knew that you'd be stoked hearing this. And I was also wondering if you still had that watch or not. Glad to hear that it is still there somewhere with you :)

Webstorm currently seems to be beyond broken so stay away from it for the time being. I've added some contents and they show up in the editor but if you open the same file in other editors, the content isn't there. So you'd think the file is saved but it isn't

⚡️We have release 1.5.0 with new faster rendering engine, thinking reasoning tags, better RTD responses, better app performance, and a few more.

Happy to jump on a call and chat more if you want

Almost all of our users use multiple models so I think letting users rank them would be better.

Some model providers do provide both models and chat interface so I think models and "model provider's chat interface" should be two different things. Not sure if that is helpful or more confusing.

And I feel like there needs to be a dedicated section for “best LLM Models” that would include Claude, chatGPT, O1, DeepSeek etc. Happy to talk more and contribute.

Chat apps maybe? I wrote-in to Chatbots. Also, calling OpenAI, Anthropic, etc. chat bots felt weird. As someone could use OpenAI, Claude etc. with an app like Msty. FWIW, we call them Online AI Model providers. Then you can fit in other providers such as AWS Bedrock which don’t have chat interface

Would love to see @msty.app mentioned in the survey. Regardless, please take a few minutes to fill up this survey if you are using Gen AI

How much do you use AI tools in your daily work? How much do you rely on it for new websites (e.g. AI prompt to generate the boilerplate code for a website, etc.)?

How much do you use AI tools in your daily work? How much do you rely on it for new websites (e.g. AI prompt to generate the boilerplate code for a website, etc.)?

on a daily basis I typically use @github.com copilot, and @msty.app for questions (mostly not about code).

I wouldn't use AI tools to bootstrap a new project - I enjoy doing it by hand too much.

if anyone (non-AI) offered to 'do' a first draft for me, I'd probably say no too ...

MSTY Crash Course earn how to use MSTY to simplify running local AI models. Explore features like side-by-side model comparisons, quick prompts, and an easy setup process.

I started out using @lmstudio-ai.bsky.social for running local models, but I recently switched to @msty.app. No issues. Document attachments and knowledge stacks improve the results. #AI #GenAI

Even better with Roo-Cline but Msty and tools like it (LM Studio etc.) are game changes in barrier to entry ✨️

Started testing out msty to test out LLM models and streamlit to stop me from pulling out my teeth with front end programming boredom. Respect to the engineers who have the patience for it and do a good job. If you’re in the product space and testing out llms Msty.app is worth a look 👀

For some reasons, when a user comes in and says “I will buy a license to your app if you add this one feature”, I actually feel less motivated to add that feature. If you are already finding some values out of an app, just buy a license and then make demands. If not, just don’t. It’s a free app!

What the heck?! I didn’t believe this at first but flipping a phone upside down and trying to tap does feel off which means this is actually true. 🤯

Just got a big performance boost by replacing Vue's `watchEffect` with `watch` and told the team that moving on it's an anti-pattern for us. It's one of the very few things I don't like at all and find really no use for it. It not only introduces naive subtle bugs but makes code very unreadable too
