FREE Trae AI IDE Beats Cursor & Windsurf?! (FREE Sonnet 3.5!)🤖ByteDance TikTok AI Coding Agent

So as most of you know the AI IDE coding race is currently going on and things are really starting to heat up wind surf just came out with Wave 3 cursors hitting new releases and we even have awesome vs code extensions like ruk Cline and Klein that are pushing new features out consistently I've done many different videos on cursor wind serve pythagora rine a bunch of different AI IDE even op Source ones like Aid and I love cursor and wind surf

As much as the next AI coder but one of the main things that a lot of people may not like about these platforms is that they're not free right so if you look on wind surf you're going to pay anywhere from 15 10 to 15 or 60 bucks a month depending on what plan you're on if we look on cursor you're going to pay anywhere from $20 a month to $40 a month all right they both have free plans but they

Are very limited well in today's video we're going to be looking at a new kid on the Block this AI IDE is called Trey and Trey is an Adaptive AI IDE that transforms how you work collaborating with you to run faster you can download this currently on Mac and windows it is a fork of vs code with a beautiful UI and guess what guys there is no pricing here it is 100% for free and here's the kicker guys it's made by

Bite dance the company that made Tik Tok we're going to dive into this AI IDE show you how it compares to tools like cursor wind Surf and see where it stands in the AI coding race let's dive right into it all right guys so before we dive into Trey let's take a quick look at their website so they have a really nice website here now they initially launched and they just had a Mac download but now they have a windows so

Uh they are coming out with the Linux one too but I'm very happy that they have a Windows now so you can go ahead watch this demo video check out the website all links I cover in today's video will be linked down below so collaboration equals you and Trey Trey is your ideal development partner seemlessly balancing human and AI capabilities this Dynamic collaboration ensures each task is handled by the most suitable agent maximizing your productivity so this is something a little

Unique to Trey is that it will actually determine what AI model is best for the specific use case what agent and this is actually pretty cool and pretty useful and a little bit different um so we have Builder here so this is like their alternative to composer or to Cascade in Wind surf so chat to build a project faster so in Builder mode Trey automatically breaks down and executes tasks optimizing each step while letting you preview and control the process multi

Modality so upload images to clarify requirements this is pretty basic but also very necessary and then context so get better results with full context the tray designed to analyze your entire codebase utilizing insights from your editor and terminal to understand your workflow better this enables more precise code generation and and tailored modifications to meet your specific needs you can see here we can add our workspace different folders files code Etc so we'll take a look at that as well and then

Autocomplete which is essential so boost efficiency with smart completion so Trey can extend your code in real time and intuitively predict your intended edits and automatically apply the changes for you and like many of you will love you can get started with it for free so to get started of course go ahead and download try once you download tray we're going to go ahead and open it on our desktop now I literally am just opening it right now in front of

You guys so let's go ahead and click on get started Ed now we can of course select dark mode for our theme we can select our language and click continue now you could import configuration so you could import from VSS code or from cursor I'm just going to skip this for now and then add the commands so start using the command tray in terminal so install tray command sure and now boom we're ready to go so please log into access features

Now the one thing I will say is if you are in Canada it's banned in there at the moment so you will have to use a VPN which I just did but anyways now we are good to go so let's open up this make it a little bit bigger here all right so let's go over the interface real quick so first off um you know it is a really nice interface it is a vs code for and one thing I will

Say is it is very similar to Jet brains IDE UI if you're familiar with jet brains it looks like they definitely got some uh ideas from them but I'm going to go ahead here and open up a new project and and also too guys if some of you are wondering about your privacy and your terms of service when it comes to using this tool that is built by bite dance you know which is the owners of Tik Tok which you know

Was apparently going to get banned just due to privacy and everything we'll take a look at that in a little bit so stay tuned for that but uh let's take a look here so we have our Explorer we have our search we have our source control here I really like the UI now we have web view which is really cool we'll come to that in just a second but that's something that I really like and then debug and then extension store

So we could go to extensions and we'll have access to all the different extensions you would get from VSS code so you can see we have even like Rue code here you would have all the different extensions like I said this is a vs code Fork so now they also have a documentation section which I'll link down below so if you want to dive into any specific features or anything like that that we go over you can definitely check this out

All right so let's take a look at some of these AI features so we mentioned before In Trey we have Builder mode and chat mode so chat mode is just your typical chat that you're going to chat with cursor or wind surf um or really any AI IDE and Builder mode is the agent that's actually going to do multifile editing and a bunch of that good stuff so let's try chat mode real quick just to get a feel for it I'm

Just going to say write me a snake game in Python and you'll see here we can add context so to add context you can click this button or simply take hashtag and then you'll see we can um you know reference the code a file a Works a folder or our workspace so this is really cool you can do this and then we can add images here of course and then you'll see here too we have our model so we have claw

Sonet 3.5 or GPT 40 so you can use either one and the beauty of this is that you can use CLA onun 3.5 one of the best if not the best AI coding model for free so I think if you're on a budget or you just you know don't want to pay for cursor or wind surf this could be a really good alternative to get um some really high quality output with these best top- of the tier models for free you

Know even if you're using Rue code or an open source AI IDE or coder you're most likely going to have to pay for API cost so this is a good alternative let's go ahead and click Send here you'll see Trey is thinking so AI is thinking I'll help you create this code and boom we got the snake game being created and you'll see it looks very similar to the other AI idees just in terms of the UI we have a code

Block right here snake game. py we could copy our code here we could insert at the cursor um we could apply to a new file so I like that it has this like if I click this it's going to create that file right here for us which is actually something I don't think cursor has um you correct me if I'm wrong they're constantly updating new features but adding to new file from here is pretty cool and then apply code changes in

Snake game so you could click that as well as you see it applied those changes we could just go ahead and click on reject or accept or control enter or control backspace let's accept that and and then it's giving us the instructions so make sure you have P game installed if not you know run this command so we can run the command in our terminal like so so here you could copy add the terminal or run all right so we're running

Pip install py game now we're running python snake game. py and boom here we have our snake game you can see here it is fully functioning and of course we're going to do more than just a snake game I just wanted to quickly showcase the chat right here so you can see how it works let's go ahead and use the Builder because this is what most of you will be using a lot of the time so now I'm going to say

Create a beautiful nextjs CRM application using App router walk me through step by step setting it up and include some cool bells and whistles like calendar pipeline management tasks and more now with Builder mode you can only use CLA Sonic 3.5 but quite frankly I personally would use that anyways all right so you can see AI is thinking right here and now it's going to create our app using nextjs App router tail one CSS Chad CN for components and we got

Our first Command right here we're going to go ahead and run this okay we got an error here so it's giving us a new command I'm going to run this and we got another error here so now it gave us a new command and it seems to be working here so we're going to go ahead click yes all right so now we're installing all the different packages right here all right so now our nextjs project is installed all right now it's

Going to install the required dependencies including Chad CN all right so we can see here it's doing some searching through our different files right here it's uh creating a new component right here we're seeing two files need to be reviewed so these are the files that it's been creating it's creating a layout. TSX right now it's going to continue creating these different files now you click click right here to see review and here you'll get to review it either click accept

Or reject so let's click accept we could of course just wait until it's all done and then click accept all it's going through here it created a bunch of different files now it's saying to run npm runev let's go ahead and run this all right so we can see here we got our app started on Local Host Port 3004 now when you actually launch it you'll get a notification here in the bottom right to say open web view but you can

Also go over here and just click on web view right here all right so I just had a few typescript errors that I went ahead and just paste it in here to fix just installing different dependencies with Shaden sometimes I find that the AI will mess up but let's go ahead and check out our for SL dashboard but I'm actually just going to go ahead and say make the dashboard the homepage we're not using this nextjs default page all right so

Now I went ahead and refreshed it and we can see our dashboard here so we can see dashboard calendar pipelines tasks clients so none of those are actually working now I do like this web view right here of course if you want to see it uh on a bigger size screen you can go ahead your actual browser here we can see our try CRM so pretty basic right now um you know some of this text should be darker are you tired

It look more modern all right so we can see it's creating all the different pages right here which is nice let's go ahead and accept this so if we go ahead to our pipelines page here we can see our pipelines all right so we can go ahead here and we can see our calendar page right here so you can see our calendar upcoming events um dashboard of course this is very basic guys like I would go ahead and improve upon this

But we can see our pipelines here task Etc all in all guys the flow is pretty good for this tool um you know I really like the web viewer that they have as well as the UI is really nice and clean now there's definitely a few features that cursor or wind surf has or other AI tools have that this one does not and it is still a really new tool so I'm sure that they'll probably come out with a lot more

Of these features now the one thing like I said a lot of you guys may be thinking about since this is a bik dance company from Tik Tok in China um what are the privacy or terms are there any potential concerns I went ahead and pasted in the terms of service into chat GPT and basically what it said some of the main concerns were were Brad and irrevocable license to your content so here's the Clause I'm not going to read it

All if you want to pause it you could read it but basically what this means is once you upload content you lose control over it permanently they can use modify and share it with partners for their own business purposes even if you delete your account they still retain rights to your content and continue using it this raises issues if you're handling confidential business data client information or proprietary code thirdparty data sharing so your data is so your data is shared with

Third party AI models and external service providers without explicit control or opt out options there's no Clarity in which third parties get access to this or how they store or process your data and then no data deletion guarantees and those are just some of the main ones but I thought I would give you guys kind of both sides of the spectrum here I do think Trey is a great tool and a great AI tool but I know a lot of you

Guys may be wondering about that so depending on your use case this could be a really great tool for you especially since it is 100% free and you can leverage Claude sonit 3.5 the power of that great AI coding model without having to break the bank if you're worried about privacy and whatnot and all that stuff then it may not be be the best tool for a long-term use and you may just want to try it out and then stick to
