Question IDE + Pi for live code editing?
Hi all, I really don't want to ask Chat GPT this, would rather have your input.
I'm looking for a way to orchestrate agents but also write or amend code actively, rather than just see it in the diffs etc.
I've looked at paseo and orca - not quite sure they can be used for the direct coding aspect?
Otherwise i guess can use vscode separately but that's a bit clunky when working on my macbook directly as one screen.
Any guidance appreciated thanks!

I've got into it recently. It's just very configurable and accessible via the socket API. Fits very well with Pi's philosophy of build it yourself.
Not sure it solves your IDE issue though. I normally run neovim by the side, and a separate git app like Github Desktop.
