The impact of AI large models on programming is enormous, and they are at the forefront. Conversational programming tools like Cursor are gradually infiltrating developers' workflows. As a star product in AI programming, Cursor is excellent, but it’s quite expensive, so we need to find alternatives, preferably free ones.

As the saying goes, it's not that we can't afford Cursor, but VsCode offers better cost-effectiveness. VsCode already has many free AI programming plugins that perform just as well as Cursor.

Previously, these plugins only supported mainstream foreign large models like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. However, with the rise of DeepSeek, these plugins have gradually started supporting DeepSeek for AI programming.
