Hide hard words

the tool of the day is Replit°hard word.

----

In what may be a good business decision, but is slightly annoying°hard word to the consumer°hard word, one must pay the $25 (monthly) up-front°hard word before using Replit°hard word.

----

Replit°hard word uses Claude°hard word; so one cannot expect it to be particularly better or worse than other tools that also use Claude°hard word.

One advantage°hard word is that the "billing°hard word" system is very transparent°hard word. It was 5c per°hard word "change" for the initial°hard word changes I made. if you aren't paying for it, in the long run it doesn't exist

One disadvantage°hard word is that there is a very low limit for the maximum°hard word "context°hard word" one can pass into queries°hard word. It was, generally, three files°hard word. This is rarely°hard word enough.

----

It also creates Git°hard word changes in a way that almost requires°hard word a development repository°hard word, and "flattening°hard word" before pushing to main 🔥 "main" used to be called "master", but the language police decided they should change it.

----

The UX°hard word changes it made were a clear case of "one step forward, one step back". Which ... can be helpful°hard word. But, the constraints°hard word of Replit°hard word make it less helpful°hard word.

At least for a new user°hard word, Replit°hard word seems to have the philosophy of "you can't write code°hard word". If you don't like what it does, tell it to do the fixing.

Well, actually, maybe there is a terminal°hard word available°hard word. And a file°hard word editor°hard word.
