The idea is nice, but the pricing is odd. 20$/month (the cost of Claude Pro) just for a web interface and a sandbox seems very expensive.

I hope the business model works out for you, but I doubt the price is justified.

Also a better link is: https://1code.dev/

The repo doesn't have screenshots, so you might loose traffic just because of that.

Nevertheless, I'll try it out - looks nice!

With Claude Code now available in the Claude desktop app, what are the key differentiators?

I’m all for new, better tools and will probably test this out over the weekend to see if the interface is more usable than Claude’s. Just curious if there’s anything you’re particularly excited about compared to the official release.

fyi: it does not build for me from the source code.

- you should replace monaco here https://github.com/21st-dev/1code/blob/47b72fb88bd15cf01cb91... with codemirror 6

- not only is it much more performant but also mobile friendly

Could you fix your video to not zoom in and out constantly like that? It's pretty hard to tell what's going on when it zooms right in every time you click something, and it's so fast it actually gave me a bit of motion sickness.

I’m happy to see another project monetizing built executables. I feel like it’s not a popular option to many, but to me I think it’s the best way to getting financial support from enterprises that would be more than happy to leech.

i would 100% pay for non-electron/non-vscode ui (sublime text? anyone?)

nothing specifically against vscode/electron/atom. i did use atom 10 years ago, then started sublime text 2, since then, it has been really hard to beat sublime text. the speed and rendering of sublime is much better.

i also have been using zed, which can be considered cloud-code ui too in certain terms, zed is quite more resource-intensive than the sublime and feels higher latency. (possibly because I use frosty-transparent theme...)

I didn't quite understand what "Unlimited web & macOS apps access" means in the paid tier. Could you elaborate?

Okay, so I want to like it and I think there is potential here.

I may be missing something in my setup, but I find these things happening in all Claude wrappers I have tried.

1. After a long stint of planning or back and forth exchange, I have to scroll to find the bottom of the conversation. Same with Claude itself.

2. I don’t want tabs as much as I want split window’s that I can label and highlight.

3. The more calm it is, I feel like I’m going to miss something that it’s fucking up. Sometimes in normal CC, I will look over and it’s making a large assumption and nuking a change we just made. I would love to control the verbosity or at least be able to peak behind the curtain at certain points.

4. I like the click flow for the planning Q&A but it wasn’t clear if I could add my own answer like I can in CC.

Other than these, I like it and want to use it more so than my current daily driver CLIManager. (Which has the overlap with points 1 and 2)

Nice work overall!

You shouldn’t start filenames or identifiers with digits.

>Do I need a Claude subscription?

>Yes, 1Code works with your Claude Pro or Max subscription. Sign in with your Anthropic account and use your existing subscription. We charge separately for the 1Code app.

Is this even after the recent events; Anthropic banning 3rd-party access to the Claude Pro/Max subscriptions and only allowing API access? Tool is nice but most certainly not* 800$ nice.

*Based on heavy Claude Max users here, the people that will be running 3-4 agents, saying API would've cost them $1k+.

Are there docs somewhere? I was looking to see if forgejo/gitlab/bitbucket are supported or if it's only github? Or if it even opens PRs on its own or not

I hate to be that guy, but if anyone got excited about an interface where they could work with Claude, I'd say stick with the cli.

If you really want a 'different' UI thats unlike VSCode or Cursor already, I'd genuinely recommend checking out almost any other tool that pairs with CC.

The pricing is ridiculous. It doesn't include the Claude subscription so $20/m is way out of league for a UI.

And a "max" subscription for $200/m??? It makes no sense. It's not because LLM making companies have plans at $200 that any company should make a $200/m plan.

"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.
