Ask HN: Tools to code using voice?

5•emerongi•20h ago

I need to minimise screen usage. What are the best tools currently available to code using voice? I'm hoping to do most of the coding using LLMs, and then do a review+touchup stage at the end.

What's the best tooling for using voice+LLMs (e.g. Claude Code)? Best tools to do regular coding?

The only ones I know of require you to be in front of your computer still. When yo say "minimize screen time," I assume you're not wanting to be in front of the computer.

Might sound trite, but why not vibe code something to help you here?

There's quite a few AFK solutions that are out there.

The OpenClaw form factor of using a chatbot to orchestrate sessions seems to be working for folks, based on what they're saying atleast.

Simon Willison talks about using Claude Code for Web, which shows up on the phone app to code on the go from his phone. He's got some useful notes on his blog: https://simonwillison.net/2025/Oct/20/claude-code-for-web/

My 2 cents: Try the OOTB options to get a feel for the ergonomics that suit you best, then vibe code something that works for you.
