Devin Desktop vs Lapce

Devin Desktop is a command center for managing local and cloud coding agents alongside a full IDE. Its editor includes syntax highlighting, autocomplete, and debugging tools; Spaces share context and Git worktrees across agents. Agent Client Protocol support is described as enabling work across models and agents, and users can review agent diffs before pushing. Integrations listed include Slack, Linear, Notion, Figma, Sentry, Stripe, Vercel, Datadog, and Atlassian, along with editor extensions and language servers. Devin CLI runs locally in a terminal. Downloads are offered for macOS, Windows, and Linux, with Mac builds for Apple Silicon and Intel and Windows builds for x64 and arm64. The Free plan costs nothing and has a light agent quota and limited model availability. Pro costs $20 a month and includes increased quotas and full model availability. Paid usage allowances refresh daily and weekly; extra usage can be purchased at API pricing. The company describes Devin Desktop as the new name for Windsurf, with existing IDE components and work carried over.

Lapce is an open-source code editor written in Rust, available for Linux, macOS, and Windows. It uses a native graphical interface with GPU acceleration through Floem. For code intelligence, it combines Tree-sitter syntax highlighting with Language Server Protocol support for completion, diagnostics, and code actions. Developers can connect to a remote machine to work in an environment matching a production server, and the included terminal opens at the workspace path. The editor has built-in Vim-like modal editing and supports multiple cursors. Plugins can be written in any programming language that compiles to WASI, and the editor supports extensions. Downloads include Linux tar.gz builds for x86 and ARM, Windows system installer and portable x86 builds, and a universal macOS DMG. The product page displays version 0.4.2. Its documentation covers setup, settings, keybindings, modal editing, remote development, themes, terminal use, multiple cursors, syntax highlighting, and plugin development. The About page says Lapdev is maintained by the Lapce team and describes Lapce and Floem as open-source projects.
