Cons
- -3.0版本仍处于Alpha阶段，可能存在稳定性问题
- -iOS平台功能仍在生产就绪阶段，可能功能不够完整
- -作为多平台解决方案，可能在某些特定平台上的体验不如专门为该平台优化的工具
- -Terminal-based interface may not appeal to developers who prefer GUI tools
- -Potentially overkill for simple, single-file coding tasks or quick fixes
- -Requires setup and configuration that may be complex for casual users
Use Cases
- •大型软件项目需要统一的跨平台开发体验和完整生命周期管理
- •分布式团队成员使用不同操作系统和开发环境时的协作开发
- •希望在移动端进行代码审查或轻量级开发任务的移动办公场景
- •Large-scale refactoring projects that touch dozens of files across a codebase
- •Implementing comprehensive features that require changes across multiple components and layers
- •Modernizing legacy codebases with systematic updates and architectural improvements
