Composer writes the worst, stupidest, most naive and straight up brains-dead code you could imagine. Fast and cheap is about all it’s got going for it. I mostly use it for “sort these lines alphabetically” and stuff that’s a smidge too complex for regex find/replace.

I primarily use composer. I wanted to build something from scratch recently and, thinking I was missing out on something, I got Opus to build it. I wasn't blown away. I gave the same prompts to composer and the code it came up with different but similar in quality. I ended up progressing with the composer code because it was easier to progress with improvements due to its faster response time.
