What is Windsurf?
Windsurf is an AI-native IDE built by the Codeium team to make coding faster and smoother. It helps teams work together using smart tools like Cascade, an agent that writes and fixes code while thinking ahead. Windsurf Tab gives better suggestions by using command history and clipboard actions. With all tools in one place, developers can build, test, and ship apps easily in one flow.
Key Features:
- AI Code Suggestions: Provides smart, AI-powered code completions to help developers write faster and more accurately.
- Auto Code Fixing: Automatically detects and fixes errors with built-in linting to maintain clean code.
- Cascade Agent: An intelligent coding agent that writes, fixes, and predicts code needs in real-time.
- Unified Workflow: Enables developers to build, test, and ship apps smoothly within a single platform.
- MCP Tool Integration: Supports MCP to integrate custom tools directly into the IDE for a personalized coding setup.
Pros:
- Easy to learn in calm water with steady, light winds.
- One inflatable board can be used for windsurfing, paddleboarding, or wingsurfing.
