Feels very similar to Aider[1]

Anyone care to compare the current Aider with Claude Code? I tried Aider 6+ months ago and liked it but haven't tried it more recently because Claude Code is working so well for me. But I keep feeling like I should try Aider again.

		Aider is good at one-shotting Git commits, but requires a human in the loop for a lot of iteration. Claude Code is better at iterating on problems that take multiple tries to get right (which is most problems IMO). I was really impressed by Aider until I started using CC.

I recently tried Aider and it seemed a bit behind. It's not getting as much development as the others either: https://github.com/Aider-AI/aider/pulse/monthly

Compare with https://github.com/sst/opencode/pulse/monthly

There’s also RooCode which is pretty nice: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=RooVeter... (fork of Cline, that one’s also good)

Ofc some might prefer the pure CLI experience, but mentioning that because it also supports a lot of providers.

I moved from Aider to ClaudeCode for the simple reason i usually use IntelliJ Idea and even if poorer than RooCode on VSCode, integration between IntelliJ and ClaudeCode is reasonably solid. That said today i started using CCR since the possibility to use different models is extremely interesting (and the reason why i initially used Aider)
