IDEs
These guides apply the practice sequence to specific AI coding environments. Each IDE has different defaults for models, context attachment, and usage dashboards — the optimization order is the same; the controls are not.
Start with Where to start for the general technique stack, then open the guide for your editor.
Guides
| IDE | Guide | Dominant waste |

More IDE guides (VS Code, Windsurf, JetBrains, etc.) follow as the series expands.
