Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best AI coding assistant for web development?▼
Cursor is currently the most popular AI-native code editor for web development, followed by GitHub Copilot for developers who prefer to stay in VS Code. Cursor's advantage is its ability to understand and edit entire codebases, not just the current file, which makes it particularly powerful for refactoring and debugging complex Next.js or React projects.
Can AI generate production-ready code, or just prototypes?▼
Modern AI coding tools can generate production-ready code for well-defined, modular tasks: UI components, API endpoints, test suites, and utility functions. For complex business logic and architecture decisions, AI-generated code still requires thorough review. The practical model used by most senior developers is AI for boilerplate and acceleration, human judgment for architecture and security.
Which AI tool is best for converting Figma designs to code?▼
Locofy.ai and Anima are the most mature Figma-to-code tools, supporting React, Next.js, Vue, and HTML/CSS output. For simpler components, Vercel's v0.dev generates polished shadcn/ui + Tailwind CSS code from screenshots or text descriptions and is free to start. The generated code almost always needs manual refinement, but it dramatically accelerates the implementation of new UI designs.
