Tips for using aider?

I'm just now getting into testing out LLM stuff, and I just setup sidekick.nvim + aider using gemini. Are there any tips or suggestions with how to use it well? I've seen stuff around wasp with cursor rules, I didn't know if there was something similar for aider.

Hi @hadanator. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- The knowledge sources mention that aider is a third-party AI pair programming tool that some Wasp users have found helpful for developing Wasp apps, especially when iterating on apps generated by Wasp AI or Mage. However, there are no detailed tips, best practices, or specific "cursor rules" for aider in the context of Wasp documented in the sources provided. The docs simply recommend checking out aider and note that more comprehensive instructions may be added in the future. For now, you can find aider at its GitHub page and experiment with it as you work on your Wasp projects. If you’re looking for Wasp-specific guidance, the official docs and issues suggest that this is an area under active exploration, but no advanced tips or integrations (like cursor rules) are documented yet for aider and Wasp together Developing Existing App with AI. If you have specific needs or run into issues, the Wasp community recommends reaching out on their Discord for help. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ---------------------- Sorry @hadanator, I seem to be having a bit of trouble. Don't worry though, I've pinged my support and they will try to fix me up! :technologist: Perhaps try again in 15mins?
