About

Aider is an AI pair-programming tool that runs directly in your terminal, helping developers build new projects or improve existing codebases using large language models. It works with both cloud-based and local LLMs, giving developers flexibility in how they use AI. Aider understands your entire codebase by mapping it, making it especially effective for larger projects. It supports over 100 programming languages and integrates tightly with Git for safe, trackable changes. Developers stay in control while accelerating development through natural language instructions.

About

The best remote pair programming app on macOS, Windows, and Linux. Because we programmers deserve better than a generic screen sharing tool. Once upon a time, there was an amazing pairing app called Screenhero. Sadly, they decided to sell to Slack, who tried to integrate them, failed, and eventually shut them down. In the following years, we made do with generic screensharing tools. It's not terrible pairing over Zoom, but it was clearly built for business types. They even call it a “meeting” in their UI. And Slack Huddles is fine, but not having remote control is a deal-breaker. Have you ever tried to dictate some code for your pair to write? Or narrated a set of Vim commands? Not fun.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Aider is one of those developer tools that feels simple in the best way. It runs in the terminal, works with my existing repo, edits files directly, and fits naturally into a Git-based workflow instead of forcing me into a whole new IDE. I really like that it is open source and model-flexible. Being able to use different LLMs, including cloud and local models, makes it much more useful for developers who care about cost, privacy, speed, and picking the right model for each job. The repo-aware workflow is a big win too. Aider can map a larger codebase, make multi-file changes, and help with real tasks like refactoring, fixing bugs, adding tests, and building features. That makes it feel more like pair programming than just asking a chatbot for snippets. The Git integration is also great. Since Aider works inside a local Git repo, it is easy to review changes, keep diffs clean, and roll back anything that does not look right.

Cons

  • Aider is still a tool for developers, not a magic autopilot. You need to understand your codebase, review the diffs, run tests, and guide it clearly if you want good results. It can also get expensive or noisy if you throw huge tasks at it without scoping the work. Like most coding agents, it performs best when you give it focused instructions, add the right files to context, and keep an eye on what it is changing. I would also be cautious with secrets, shell commands, and production-sensitive repos. Aider is powerful because it can work directly with your code, but that means you still need good review habits and guardrails.
