v3code AI Editor That Thinks With You. It knows where everything is,
Remembers what it learns, and even lets you bring the editor's tools to your favorite coder
would love for you to try v3code and give a review good or bad. I spent a year building it as a solo developer. Fully free, byok, Indexing, computer use, clone websites, use claude/grok/copilot paid plans inside v3code, autocomplete, turbodraft, byok, exceptional 8 layer memory system with agents that don't forget even in a brand new chat.. we don't use your data either.
built to combat memory loss.
built to make building fast and simple.
Built for real developers, and everyone else too anywhere in the world.
You can always use V3code. We are a similar but fully free, byok, super, optioned out version of cursor/ Trae. Indexing, computer use, clone websites, use claude/grok/copilot paid plans, autocomplete, turbodraft, byok, exceptional 8 layer memory system with agents that don't forget even in a brand new chat.. we don't use your data either.

@vibecodeguild@nateherk Bro he could literly clont with my editor in like 20 seconds and serve it on local host.. I need to show how to clone in a better way with it.
I spent 3000+ hours on a program solo and 2 weeks after launch its exploding!! 👇
I normally wouldn’t post on Reddit, but I figured my story might help someone building their own thing. Last year I started building V3Code, a fork of VSCode/Void. I’d failed a bunch of projects before learning coding and some Ai, and I was frustrated with Cursor forgetting everything after each chat. VSCode was a huge codebase, so I leaned on Opus 4.6 and obsessed — 13 to 16 hours a day, sometimes 20+. I built memory, indexing, and what I call Context Bridge with LSP tools. A few months in, I had a rough editor, a chat system, and a working memory layer. I switched to Claude Code because Cursor was burning through my subscription in days. Claude felt endless. So I exposed V3Code tools through MCP, hooked up memory + indexing, and suddenly it wasn’t about building V3Code — it was about making Claude better. That became my # feature. Eight months passed. I kept improving everything, terrified it would be another failure. I added “bring your own key,” optimized for Grok and DeepSeek, kept everything local because of the Cursor/XAI data mess, and built a full terminal version. I still didn’t ship. I was scared. Then I realized people were launching half‑baked apps and talking about MRR. A closed mouth doesn’t get fed. So I pivoted hard: learned After Effects, motion graphics, funnels, everything. If I spent a year building something better, I needed to learn how to sell it. I posted everywhere. Nothing moved. Then I found a YouTuber with 15k subs whose Claude videos were blowing up. I paid him $250. Weeks passed — I thought I got ripped off. Then he dropped the video. Across all channels it hit a few hundred thousand to a 1/2 mil views. My site exploded. Thousands of visitors in days. Now I’m at 9k downloads, 2500 active Daily users, and 83 paid customers with 85% retention. I even had to pause paid plans because of model rate limits.
What I learned:
\-Don’t market yourself if you have no audience.
\-Find creators who are almost blowing up, this is your ride if you can help them pitch it.
\-A real great product matters, but not as much as you think. Sweat/ grind matters.
\-Two months minimum. Then Ship. Don’t wait for it to be perfect.
If you want to try V3Code and give feedback, it’s free. r/v3code Paid plans are optional. The newest feature is a voice agent you talk to like ChatGPT — it builds while you brainstorm its like Jarvis but better. Not saying I “made it big,” but it’s growing every day by word of mouth.
@jonathan_wilke The amount of tokens spent on how many clones of this man's website has been spent is what you all should be betting on.. thats the gross number!!
I feel like i have made it.. The start:
im proud to have put a year and 3000 + Hours
into v3code and paid youtubers, and
slaved putting in the work..
the payoff:
$2450MRR and this is going on the second month
it really is starting to payoff.. finallly ...
I needed this..
V3code is doing $2450 monthly
Anyone else Doing well with there product lets see 👇
Build this with local ai Qwen
Fully Build dashboard replica-

Anyone else having this luck with local ai?
Whats everyone else making let me see?

Anyone else having this luck with local ai? Or is it my local editor and all the juice it has under the hood driving local models?
@chddaniel v3code is a fork of vscode/void we are a free version cursor/trae with all the features and more, 3000 users.. would be interested in adding this as a option to v3code if your interested in working with us?
