"Claude Code, but usable" might not be the best tagline. I find Claude Code extremely usable. In fact, it's the simplest product that "just works" I've ever used.


Yeah, this is a weird angle to go down when you're trying to compete against... the most popular product.


The tagline might feel off if you're already comfortable with CLI. Though there's definitely an audience for this — my co-founder posted about struggling with CLI and it got 240k views with 400+ replies of people feeling the same: https://x.com/serafimcloud/status/2002304990053085542

Even as a technical person, I remember my transition from Cursor to Claude Code CLI being rough. Maybe 1Code could be a way to get the best of both worlds, power of claude code and UX of Cursor


I feel like you're trying to straddle two worlds, like Jean-Claude van Damme. Easier to pick a lane! Good luck.


noted, title comes from my cofounder who's not technical, but he loved Cursor, I was convincing Serafim to try Claude Code, but he just couldn't use it. Cause it was a CLI, then I created a first alpha version of this UI for them .... and he loved it! he's now a fan of Claude Code, and that's where reasoning for "useful" coming from
