I wonder if the reason that most people don’t agree with me about Antigravity is because you were used to VS Code?

For me, Antigravity is possibly the worst GUI experience I’ve had since Clippy.

It’s completely filled with arcane buttons, prompts that are effectively modal appear in at least 3 different places, it’s constantly… doing stuff, without any reference to where I should focus my attention.

I appreciate Google giving away absurdly generous quantities of tokens for FREE just to get me to use the thing, but I can’t bring myself to, because when I get into the flow of a feature with an LLM, I’m suddenly stuck and can’t figure it out.

It’s like peak Google UI for me.

Curious: whats your primary programming language and what sort of development do you do ? In my experience with LLMs agentic coding paired with a good IDE works wonders. Its also allows me to surgically write critical bits of code myself while outsourcing boilerplate stuff.
