Windsurf

Windsurf (formerly Codeium) is where developers do their best work. It combines the familiar feel of modern IDEs with AI agents that can autonomously handle complex development tasks.

Cascade: Your AI Pair Programmer

Windsurf's Cascade feature is a game-changer:

Agentic Workflows: Describe what you want built, and Cascade plans, codes, tests, and iterates autonomously. It remembers your codebase structure, follows your patterns, and learns from feedback.

Context Awareness: Cascade maintains a working memory of:

• Your project architecture and conventions
• Recently accessed files and changes
• Linting rules and error patterns
• Terminal command history
