I'm actually shocked how bad it is. It offers you almost no settings and debugging is an absolute nightmare. It can create really nice UI mockups and I like the version controll they added. But except that it's an absolute pain to work with.
- It will not answer in your native language. Not a big deal but still… why?
- It won't have a normal conversation with you and it won't t ask any questions when it's unsure. It will just instantly write tons of useless code.
- You have to beg it so it adds debugging to anything even after 5 rounds of failed attempts to get things up and running.
- It will repeat the same coding mistakes over and over again wasting time and tokens.
- After fixing bugs manually and writing a detailed report from my side it will not remember this at all and screw up my code next chance it gets.
- No internet access so you will have to feed it with Infos all the time (so you waste more time googling or using a second llm with internet access).
- Will often ignore or forget my requests. After only a few messages error rates get so bad that I have to reset the chat.
- Fails du update project files, writes code in the chat every few messages. (This kind of problem can easily be fixed with a simple correction loop)
- Will aggressively use Google products any chance it gets even if it makes no sense at all.
Even with all these flaws it can still generate decent little tools but I just don't get why they don't invest 10 more minutes to make it actually good.
