Comment on Ask HN: Do AI code tools work well with your company's codebase?parent

Comments

I've heard Rust is especially hard for LLMs, what with the need to thinking deeply about variable ownership and lifetimes. I wonder if it will work better if you try o1-mini (as long as you're still providing the right context!)

And I would've thought that AI would be good at creating new routes (wrap this function in a POST route) - certainly I've done this with Python and TS and it's been fine. Maybe it's a Rust specific issue? Likewise, SQL migrations I would've expected to also just work, especially if your schema change is small! Interesting that it doesn't!

Which tool do you use? Cursor or something else?
