What are people using as their primary method of interacting with Claude Code? Right now I’m using Warp, and I’ve heard good things about iTerm2. Both have vertical tab support which is nice. I’m on Mac and switched off of the Terminal app because of the frustrating text duplication/scroll glitch, and for better UI. I’ve also seen that many people are loyal to VS Code and Cursor, although I’m guessing these are better for people co-editing their codebases alongside Claude. One factor for me is memory usage. Even with a 36GB M3 Pro, sometimes I run out of memory while doing heavy work. Also, I’m curious to hear if there are any advantages to using the Claude Code tab of the desktop app. It wasn’t an option when I started using Claude Code so I haven’t considered it, but I’m wondering what people think of that.
