Claude Code: Fun but Pricey and Reckless
Claude Code shines in "vibe coding"—when you're guiding development more than writing it yourself. It's fun, less mentally exhausting, but also expensive and risky. Great for automating boring tasks or adding features, but its loose supervision makes it better for small, non-critical projects. If precision matters, Cursor is the better pick. Think of it like a self-driving car: cool for casual trips, but you wouldn't trust it with a high-stakes race.
