Kai's verdictS-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.S-tier. If you're on Vercel/shadcn, this is cheating.A-tier. Best free agentic option in VS Code. Use with Claude for best results.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.
