Show HN: microide, a 100% vibecoded IDE that LLM agents can drive
https://pablojimenezmateo.github.io/microide/
I want to be very upfront: this IDE's code is 100% generated by LLMs supervised by me, I am not hiding this fact. This submission was written by a human.microide's focus is performance and privacy, I was very tired of having AI integrated on every tool (ironic, I know, having vibecoded this one), and the decline in software performance. After trying quite a few IDEs none were what I wanted so I started microide. microide also does not have any kind of telemetry nor networking capabilities by design, no accounts, no update checks, none.
Since I only use CLI-based LLM tools, microide has a good git diff/merge workflow (for me to check what the agents did) and a way for the LLMs to interact with it, these are a few of the prompts I use:
* 'Check this repo, I am not familiar with it, open in microide the most relevant files to study, reorder the tabs so I can study them in order' * 'Pull main and merge, open any conflicts in microide for me to review' * 'This app is crashing, find where it breaks and set a breakpoint in microide just before the crash and give me the control'
I am using it as my daily driver for a couple of weeks and enjoying it, I think it is mature enough to show. I do not plan to monetize it at any point.
At the moment microide is Linux only, I would love to bring microide to macOS as well, but since I do not have access to a Mac I could not test it properly.
