According to the 2025 @Stack Overflow Developer Survey (49,000+ participants), @VS Code and @Visual Studio remain the most used dev environments, despite the rise of subscription-based, AI-enabled code editors @Cursor and @Windsurf among others. Both maintain their top spots relying on extensions as optional, paid AI services like @Github Copilot and @Kilo Code.

Curious which IDE the Product Hunt community uses the most?

Hello Daddies,

Oh god...maybe not, if the same person that came up with Swifties can get in touch that would be great.

The most prominent pioneer in AI is certainly OpenAI, but Grok, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude aren t doing badly either.

And now that these tools have already adapted to the market, it feels like Apple is only just waking up.

Vibe coding tools have been making huge improvements, but things can always get better.

What blockers are you still running into? What has no one solved yet? What do you wish you could do, but can't yet?

I'm a big fan of voice dictation apps. In fact, I'm using one right now to write this very post (you'll have to wait till the end to see which one I'm using )

The two main products I've used in this space are @Aqua Voice and @Wispr Flow. From talking to others, these are the two that I typically hear people mention using. In general, I hear a lot more people talk about using Wispr Flow.

For me, it always starts with a coffee. Unless it's evening, which is pretty common when I'm vibe coding, and then it's tea.

In terms of themes, I've been digging catppuccin wherever I can use it. I know there are extensions for @VS Code @Cursor and @Windsurf. I've mostly been working with @Claude by Anthropic in @iTerm2 and it's available there too. Their website has a huge list of places you can use it.

As Cascade has gotten better, we noticed that the tasks users are giving it have gotten more complex. Instead of just asking Cascade to make simple edits, users are relying on Cascade to build out entire features, perform large refactors, and implement PRs end to end. More complex tasks mean longer prompts with more information which can often be laborious to type out. In this wave, we re bringing voice support to Cascade. This means that users can just speak to Cascade rather than having to type things out (though it doesn t talk back yet)

I recently found a dataset on @Hugging Face that has a huge list of prompts. It's called awesome-chatgpt-prompts, but they point out that it's applicable to other models as well. There are some really useful ones in it along with some funny ones like Magician and Lunatic

I've found persona prompts like this to be really helpful, and I want to start trying out some of these now. I've even gotten my wife to start using some persona prompts in @ChatGPT by OpenAI and she's getting better results.

I've recently gotten into training grip strength and since it s a new area of strength training for me, I ve been asking Claude a lot of weird questions about training and recovery techniques. So now, my chat history is a ton of stuff about work with the occasional odd question about how often I should be using extensor bands haha

What are some of the strangest things you've asked AI to help with? Did it actually help?

Congrats to @rahulvohra and the team!

To continue what @steveb started last May:

Building a team or want to join a startup?

We ve put a lot of work into our UI to give you a great time-blocking experience. Unlike most calendar apps, time-blocking tools are meant to be filled up for the day, leaving very little white space. That extra colour density can feel overwhelming! Try filling a whole day in Google Calendar s day view with coloured events and you ll see what I mean.

We really value your feedback, so before we tweak the UI we want to make the right choice. Below you ll find our original task colours alongside a new option we re considering. Cast your vote for your favourite, and we ll take it on board.

If you have a feature idea or any other suggestion, just email us at support@chunkapp.net.

I'm a product nerd. I love demoing and testing out products and am blessed that I can do this as part of my work here at Product Hunt but I sometimes forget to share my thoughts and impressions from testing products with the community....and I want to change that!
What would you like to see if I were to start sharing some reviews, product comparisons, and first impressions of Products that are launched or discovered? What aren't you currently seeing in reviews!
Throw any ideas, ask me anything, this is ultimately for you all!

About 4 months ago, I asked for beginner tips on Raycast so that I could start trying it out. I'd heard some people talk about how helpful it was, but just downloading it, I didn't really know where to start or how to get the most out of it.

Well, 4 months later, it is an integral part of my workflow now. I'd actually say it's one of the most impactful apps I use (the other being @Aqua Voice) in terms of really improving my overall work. I use it now for so many things every day, and I've gotten it set up to be incredibly fast and efficient for what I need. I think I would feel very slow and disorganized going back to not using it.

Starting something completely new, iterating on an existing project, or just brainstorming? Drop your plans here and get some feedback!

What I'd love to hear:

• What are you tackling this weekend?

• Any interesting challenges you're working through?

• Looking for feedback on an idea or feature?

@mat_sherman and I have been talking about meditation and I was remembering I had tested out @Calm and @Headspace. I searched forums and see references to these in convos 5 years ago. They still seem like the main contenders, but I also just downloaded @Insight Timer App @Breathwrk and https://www.meditatehappier.com/ too.

Anyone have experience with any of these? I'm new to meditation, have tried it a few times but have yet to build a habit and need to! Any recs are greatly appreciated!
