Use case
Coding agents for beginners
Beginner here means someone who can describe the product and is willing to read errors, not someone who already lives in a monorepo. Browser builders sit next to editors that still expect a project on disk.
Scored
Sorted by the published overall score. A tie breaks A to Z. Sponsorship, affiliates, and fast-track fees are not inputs.
