Hi all,
I am curious: Claude Desktop vs Claude Code in VS Code or another IDE — what do you use, and why?
I’ve been using Claude Code in VS Code for months, but lately I’ve been curious about trying Claude Desktop.
For those who have used both, I’d love to hear:
- What do you primarily use, and why?
- What advantages does one have over the other?
- What limitations does Claude Desktop have compared with VS Code?
- Do you prefer using both for different workflows?
Thank you so much 😊
