@@aner87I have been using cursor for free + api keys for a few months via official anthropic API, OpenRouter, and Azure OpenAI. I ended up paying more and getting less features using my own API…by a lot.
Another great video and step by step. Thanks for all you do !! Will give this a shot later today. Last time I used Claude with a "code helper" it ended up costing $43. I hope the caching feature can reduce that.
it reduces a lot but there is a caveat to that I hapened to learn while confronting with it. There is a tier system with Anthropic that dictates a rate limit per minute and day. 1st tier is 1 million tokens or so a day, so if you go above that, and I assume you would if you ended up with $43 it means you have a large codebase to go through, then for a whole day you can't do anythin anymore and by the time you are able to use the API again your cache is expired (valid for 5 min). In that scenario you would almost never use the cahing feature. the higher you go in the tiers the less of a hurdle this will be though
The main difference between the chat interface and the Composer feature in Cursor AI lies in their functionality and efficiency for code editing and management. Chat Interface Manual Changes: In the traditional chat mode, users must manually apply changes to each file one by one. This involves clicking "apply" for each file and then saving them individually, which can be time-consuming and cumbersome. Single File Focus: While it allows for multi-file changes, the process is less streamlined compared to Composer, making it less efficient for larger projects. Composer Feature Batch Processing: Composer allows users to apply changes across multiple files simultaneously with a single click, significantly speeding up the workflow. This is particularly useful for full-stack development, where multiple files often need to be updated at once. Enhanced User Experience: With Composer, users can accept all changes at once, which simplifies the workflow and reduces the need for repetitive actions. It also supports a more intuitive chat-based interaction for generating and managing code. Overall, Composer is designed to enhance productivity and streamline the coding process, making it a more efficient option compared to the traditional chat interface.

I prefer ClaudeDev as well but sadly I am hitting rate limits too quickly with larger projects… And since the OpenRouter integration for ClaudeDev doesn’t support promt cashing yet, the costs get out of hand way too fast… Does anyone has some recommendations? Maybe how to get to a higher tier at Anthropic or how you guys are handling bigger projects with ClaudeDev.
I think Anthropic's Rate limits are kind of dynamic. Like when there are a lot of people using their API it gets rate limited quite often but that gets fixed later on. So, a little waiting is fine atleast for me.
What about indexing feature? It's quite a big one as it allows asking about the big code bases in a single query, let's say Linux Kernel - the thing which e.g. MS Copilot can't handle completely.
@AICodeKing Curosr killer feature is the DIFF it does allowing you to apply changes from chat directly to code. Is there any other product that does that?
Thanks a lot for the video? as a amateur dev, what do you think about Cody? it´s only $10, you can tag the related files, etc. Not sure if this option would be much cheaper than Cody... thanks anyways for the video, much appreciated, it´s worth trying!!
@@AICodeKing Can I follow someone else than your awesome video to see if any updates on this alternative to cursor its progress and who might be contributing to this alternative? Thanks a lot, looking forward to some nice no code AI all language app development in the future!
I have recently covered the updates of ClaudeDev and I keep covering updates and such things. So, you can check my videos out for the updates and stuff. Zed AI is good if you are looking for a simple install (I have a video on that)
@@AICodeKing Definitely subscribed 👍 I think it could be good to keep doing updates when the solution improves about providing this "free" cursor alternative 😎👍 This stuff is so much fun!! I wonder how far from "a perfect no code environment" we might be, with easy to use AI chats to implement all sorts of ideas for beginners and for advanced users also to save a lot of time getting a lot more things done. It's easy for me as beginner to imagine "No Code" can somehow really be great, but what I see people showing off in videos about Cursor is amazing, so would be good to have a "free" alternative. Especially for people like me who don't plan to use it so much to justify the $20/month, perhaps many people just want to play around with it for free, for few cents or for few $ per month as needed..
When considering costs, the main question is: How does Sonnet 3.5 compare against DeepSeek Coder? People want multi-file editing; if DeepSeek Coder worked well for it, costs wouldn't be an issue anymore. And there's one other thing when comparing Sonnet 3.5 costs in Claude Dev to Cursor: If the chat gets longer, we come easily to a point in Claude Dev, where one request costs 40 cents or more, whereas there is a fixed price of 4 cents in Cursor for each request.
@@salamandr4111am curious to know if you’ve ever maxed out the 500 requests per month limit? I use claude pro a lot for data science and code length becomes an issue

Love your attempt to get us alternatives to cursor. Cursor indeed has some nice features. However, the price tag and not being open source is not that nice. So, thank you and keep us inshallah updated.
What about the update of library ? Example with llamaindex where every single week new objects are made ? I use perplexity to deal with. But here or in cursor ?
simply, incredible your tutorial, I am enthusiastic to support me with ia for several things but it is very ugly to have to pay for each thing that sometimes can be achieved as in your tutorial, thank you very much greetings from Colombia.
hi, my question is different - while those options are great , either using cursor or the free combination, im trying to understand the need for developers , if a guy with no clue of how to code can make stuff by just use prompt, what makes developer or engineer important for the company? auto code has flaws that's for sure, but mostly on the secured sections, which for that company can hire for this role. so what am i missing?
Claude 3.5 sonnet costs $18/month, Cursor costs $20/month and provide other premium models if you need. I guess there is a low difference between use Cursor or free open source analogs in price for user.
Awesome video! Question: If I am using VS + Continue + ClaudeDev. do I also need to use Qwen2? I'm confused as to what continue is doing and what Qwen2 is doing here?
Exactly. Been meaning to make youtube tutorial vids for devs and tech enthusiast for a while, and this topic will definitely be my first. The word "Agent" is the equilvanlt to the word "Metaverse" lol. Continue is fire though although it takes some configuring to work properly and even then the indexing of third party repos works sometimes and others not. Copilot w/ beta features and V0 should start ending the AI agent/AI code editor hype.
Thanks for this amazing video. BTW Is it possible to allocate the responsibilities of web app development among Aider, Cline, and Cursor according to their strengths to achieve the best results while minimizing costs?
Free and Local is the best part about all of your videos. I'm not saying you don't provide value, cause you do like crazy, but on top of Free and local
you're a hero amongst the villains i cant give you money sadly cuz i'm not in good financial conditions but i do appreciate the tutorial ^^ very nice well done, best tutorial i've ever seen till today, easy to do no complicated stuff. could have some extra stuff like setting it up totally local (which i think you didnt put in the video probably cuz in the day you recorded it there was no option to run it through ollama, today we can) but how to do just as the cursor do which you have a chat tab and a composer one? i didnt really understand what composer does different, also can we mimic the "agent" mode composer has today? also which language model that i can download on ollama can do the computer use thing?/
I tried "continue" + Jan recently. It you are working with local code it is fine. But it hang VScode when doing remote+ssh. I think it is a "continue" issue.
cursor cannot be cheaper than this because they need to pay the apis they are using (claude) plus it's not like the devs are not making any money out of it. I have been using neovim with avant and gemini (because I don't have access to claude from EU yet, and openAI doesn't have free api usage) and it's been working great. I will try this option later, and for most users, at least, with gemini should be free or at least almost free and I don't even need a payment method for the current usage.
with codestral, you can use the api's groq too and you can use llama 3.1-70b parameter size And I think it could be better instead of spend your money.
Non-coder here. Just trying to understand a few things. If we are using Claude Dev (and presumably qwen 2, why is Continue Dev even necessary? It seems redundant. Is Continue Dev the "bridge" between qwen2 and VSCode or something? Also, as a non-coder, is auto-complete even a critical feature. I don't know any code to input myself. I'm just having fund being creative with webapps and interfaces. Is there a reason a non-coder needs auto-complete? I do understand the value of it for an experienced dev as it can save them a lot of time. But I'm wondering if it is a non-issue for someone like me as I don't understand how I can benefit.
Are there any small coding LLMS that would run on a 6 year old laptop? 16GB ram with an NVidia GTX1060 6GB The ones I've tested so far are really slow.
This combo is the best out their considering how AI is still not super deterministic . ClaudeDev might be expensive but you are incharage of what request you are charged so its cheeper for short project changes or existing codebase change ClaudeDev could become expensive than Cursors pro model if you are using it too much but its worth it in long run considering if you are dedicated to the project you are willing to pay that much. Its still worth using ClaudeDev over Cursor i feel atm Using aider which lets you use any models from many platforms is good but at the end only Sonet 3.5 and Deekseekcoder are the only once that can make it well

could you make a video about the best continue dev tab completion model? I've tried some models with it but it doesn't do well enough for my projects
has anyone tried this for a while? do you recommend using this setup over using cursor? and why?
Good stuff I just stared coding and this helps
hi, my question is different - while those options are great , either using cursor or the free combination, im trying to understand the need for developers , if a guy with no clue of how to code can make stuff by just use prompt, what makes developer or engineer important for the company? auto code has flaws that's for sure, but mostly on the secured sections, which for that company can hire for this role. so what am i missing?
Claude 3.5 sonnet costs $18/month, Cursor costs $20/month and provide other premium models if you need.
I guess there is a low difference between use Cursor or free open source analogs in price for user.
Does someone has experience on which autocomplete ollama model is the best?
Also, why not using groq wuth ollama 3.1 as api for the coding?
Thanks for the video, you've earned my subscription
how can we use claudedev or any alternative for AI app to run in android studio
well, thanks. but where can i get the API key for claude?
Can we use Local LLMs instead of paying for claude 3.5 sonnet?
Awesome video! Question: If I am using VS + Continue + ClaudeDev. do I also need to use Qwen2? I'm confused as to what continue is doing and what Qwen2 is doing here?
do I also need to use Qwen2? I'm confused as to what continue is doing and what Qwen2 is doing here? - Thanks in advance to anyone that can help here
Thats for running the model locally so its fully free. Instead of an API key.
How about indexing documentation? In Cursor I can feed a link to lib docs and then tag it in my requests.
You can do that with this as well.
Exactly. Been meaning to make youtube tutorial vids for devs and tech enthusiast for a while, and this topic will definitely be my first. The word "Agent" is the equilvanlt to the word "Metaverse" lol. Continue is fire though although it takes some configuring to work properly and even then the indexing of third party repos works sometimes and others not. Copilot w/ beta features and V0 should start ending the AI agent/AI code editor hype.
Thanks for this amazing video. BTW Is it possible to allocate the responsibilities of web app development among Aider, Cline, and Cursor according to their strengths to achieve the best results while minimizing costs?
This is great. For a newb this is really helpful.
Free and Local is the best part about all of your videos. I'm not saying you don't provide value, cause you do like crazy, but on top of Free and local
Also there is a VS code extension for Aider made by a third party.
So, will this method use up too much of my laptop's resources and slow down my device?
What about hosting a model on VPS and keeping it turned on when only needed? Would it be cheaper?
No, that would be even higher in cost.
i have gemini flash.. is it good for coding? i could't verify my number with claude
you're a hero amongst the villains
i cant give you money sadly cuz i'm not in good financial conditions but i do appreciate the tutorial ^^ very nice well done, best tutorial i've ever seen till today, easy to do no complicated stuff. could have some extra stuff like setting it up totally local (which i think you didnt put in the video probably cuz in the day you recorded it there was no option to run it through ollama, today we can)
but how to do just as the cursor do which you have a chat tab and a composer one? i didnt really understand what composer does different, also can we mimic the "agent" mode composer has today?
also which language model that i can download on ollama can do the computer use thing?/
Does ClaudeDev support prompt caching?
could i connect with Xcode or if not can i create IOS Apps? (not Web Apps) thank you in advance! :)
I tried "continue" + Jan recently. It you are working with local code it is fine. But it hang VScode when doing remote+ssh. I think it is a "continue" issue.
Cody is a pretty good VS Code extension for free that does code completion and goes through the code.
Thanks
but, using the Claude ai API-Key is not for free , or?
There's a free 5$ credit but after that it costs money but cheaper than Cursor
@@AICodeKing so it's not free
Earned a subscriber! thank you
that's great , cursor can also use @ to select a folder/file, can we add this into ,like claude dev?
Yes, you can do that.
Thanks for the walkthrough...
cursor cannot be cheaper than this because they need to pay the apis they are using (claude) plus it's not like the devs are not making any money out of it. I have been using neovim with avant and gemini (because I don't have access to claude from EU yet, and openAI doesn't have free api usage) and it's been working great. I will try this option later, and for most users, at least, with gemini should be free or at least almost free and I don't even need a payment method for the current usage.
just subscribed! because of this super informative video, thank you for making this!
The first time I know about Cursor is from this video.
with codestral, you can use the api's groq too and you can use llama 3.1-70b parameter size And I think it could be better instead of spend your money.
Do a video on how to rollback from cursor to vs-code. Many people would want to do that after seeing this video. Thank you
I am getting a HTTP 401 Unauthorized error when I try to use Anthropic, is anyone willing to help solve this?
You must be hitting a rate limit. Try to wait a bit and try again.
@@AICodeKingif i buy credits will it solve the problem?
Non-coder here. Just trying to understand a few things. If we are using Claude Dev (and presumably qwen 2, why is Continue Dev even necessary? It seems redundant. Is Continue Dev the "bridge" between qwen2 and VSCode or something?
Also, as a non-coder, is auto-complete even a critical feature. I don't know any code to input myself. I'm just having fund being creative with webapps and interfaces. Is there a reason a non-coder needs auto-complete? I do understand the value of it for an experienced dev as it can save them a lot of time. But I'm wondering if it is a non-issue for someone like me as I don't understand how I can benefit.
For autocomplete
is continue dev better than codeium?
@King I wish I could use deepseek or qwen with ClaudeDev
What about cody?
Can you use llama 3 with open router? Making it free all the way then?
VSCode + ClaudeDev = Just awesome
Are we able to connect LM studio to this instead of Ollama?
Yes
Are there any small coding LLMS that would run on a 6 year old laptop?
16GB ram with an NVidia GTX1060 6GB
The ones I've tested so far are really slow.
Yes, Phi-3, YiCoder 1.5b, Qwen-2 1.5b, MiniCPM. All will work fine.
I'm still having to provide an API key ... Is Claude API key free ?
This combo is the best out their considering how AI is still not super deterministic . ClaudeDev might be expensive but you are incharage of what request you are charged so its cheeper for short project changes or existing codebase change
ClaudeDev could become expensive than Cursors pro model if you are using it too much but its worth it in long run considering if you are dedicated to the project you are willing to pay that much. Its still worth using ClaudeDev over Cursor i feel atm
Using aider which lets you use any models from many platforms is good but at the end only Sonet 3.5 and Deekseekcoder are the only once that can make it well
How do you share an existing code base in order to improve it
I tried both , Cursor is cheaper
at 7:46 was that the browser where minesweeper game was in center or any other application ?
It was the browser.
I don't understand. So what is the purpose of Continue Dev with qwen2 in this video if we install the ClaudeDev later? Please help me explain
It's for autocompletion in code.
@@AICodeKing can you recommand a autocomplete tools better than qwen2? I think about copilot or something else
You can also use codium extension
Create a video where it can completely be used with free models like Gemini 1.5 Flash and Pro
