We chose LangGraph to build our coding agent (qodo.ai)
We’ve been building AI coding assistants at Qodo since the GPT-3 days. Our initial approach was highly structured with predefined flows for different coding tasks like test generation, code reviews, and improvements. This approach worked well with earlier generations of LLMs and with structured flows we were able to get real-world value from older models, despite all of their limitations.

I've seen it brought up quite a few times here in the past few weeks. I'm currently using VSCode + Copilot. Would be great to hear some experiences, even better if you migrated from the stack I am using.
