Decision brief
continue is an open-source coding agent developed in TypeScript, designed to assist developers with coding tasks.
Good fit when
- Use continue when you are working on projects that require TypeScript, as it is developed in this language and may offer better integration or performance.
- Consider continue if you prefer open-source tools under the Apache-2.0 license, which allows for broad usage and modification rights.
Avoid when
- Avoid continue if your project is not in TypeScript or if you do not require a coding agent that is specifically optimized for TypeScript.
- Do not use continue if you need a proprietary tool with specific support or features not available in open-source alternatives.
