Just tried canvas yesterday (Plus.) Hit some walls around 800 lines. Is Pro any better?

Exploring Canvas Plus: A Review After Initial Experience and Considering Upgrades

As a developer who has experimented with various AI-assisted coding tools, I recently had the opportunity to test out Canvas Plus and wanted to share my initial impressions, particularly in comparison with prior experiences such as Google AI Studio.

My Background with AI Coding Tools

Previously, I utilized Google AI Studio to develop a fully functional application comprising approximately 10,000 lines of code. One feature I appreciated was its ability to organize code across multiple files, facilitating better structure and manageability.

First Impressions of Canvas

Eager to see how Canvas performs, I decided to give it a try. The interface is user-friendly and the AI’s capability to rewrite and generate code is quite seamless—streamlining the coding process by automatically updating code sections rather than requiring manual editing of individual blocks. This feature alone enhances efficiency and reduces the tedium of code maintenance.

Encountered Limitations

However, my experience was somewhat limited in scope. After approximately 800 lines of code, Canvas began exhibiting issues that hindered progress. This brings up questions about the scalability and stability of the platform, especially for larger projects.

Considering an Upgrade to Canvas Pro

Given these initial challenges, I am contemplating whether upgrading to Canvas Pro would address these limitations. Does the Pro version offer improved stability, increased code capacity, or additional features that could better support extensive projects? Your insights and experiences with Canvas Pro would be greatly appreciated.

Conclusion

While Canvas’s ability to rewrite code automatically is a significant advantage, its current performance constraints after a certain project size are noteworthy. For those working on large-scale applications, assessing the benefits of the Pro version may be worth considering. I look forward to hearing others’ experiences and recommendations regarding scaling with Canvas Pro.

Thank you!
