Codeium launches Windsurf – the first agentic IDE (opens in new tab)

One of the cooler features in Windsurf is Cascade, sort of an agent powered by an LLM that you can talk to and can make changes to your codebase.

Here's an example of me using Cascade to solve a CTF challenge: https://youtu.be/LbYepFmVB20

Created a twitter scrape. Allowed me to scrape twitter's tweets for any specific user. Gave me breakdown on 24hr tweets, most recent tweets, and specific keywords I looked up.

I then asked it to make me a GUI for these tweets I was seeing.

Total time: 25 minutes.

Customer Obtained?: Yes. For life.

Very cool, hopefully VS Code eventually builds in native support for whatever functionality is missing that is part of the reason for these forks.

Has anyone used this on a larger codebase yet? I'm curious to see how it handles larger contexts.
