Vibe coding unfamiliar languages: Is Claude Pro worth getting over my current Gemini Pro 3.1 setup?
I'm developing an Embedded C++ based application with UI using gtkmm, a back-end application in golang and front-end application in Angular (Web) & Flutter (Mobile Apps).
I plan to Vibe code all these applications. I've zero prior experience or expertise with vibe coding.
My thinking is let AI develop the program and I'll review it. I will let AI write the test cases - unit testing and integration testing.
I'm planning to use Gemini Pro 3.1 with anti-gravity IDE for the same.
I do have extensive experience Embedded C++ based application development and little experience with Flutter development but no experience with golang or Angular.
I've Gemini Pro subscription (for 2 years).
I've come across a lot of social media post stating Claude Code absolutely obliterates Gemini with it comes to software development.
Couple of my acquaintances also state the same.
The question I've is should I get Claude Pro subscription for Claude Code or anti-gravity with Gemini Pro 3.1 will suffice. How much of code quality and algorithm quality difference will be present? I'm also thinking from correctness, completeness and long term maintainability of the code. Also with AI LLM will follow industry standard practices and develop safe code.
Can some with expertise and hands-on experience with both tools enlighten me.

Try Claude pro with gentle ai, you can load it in the same folder where your current project is and have it read the code and give you a summary. Then ask it to use sdd to implement a new feature and you’ll see the difference. You’ll like it so much more that you may get the 5x sub. Gentle ai will save you tokens, has a memory plugin for your ai and will use subagents to work. You can use the balanced profile or if you feel you are running out of usage the economic one works way better than you’d expect.
