Antigravity IDE: An Agent centric IDE by Google


Have you heard about Google's latest Agentic AI-centered IDE, Antigravity?

The AI space has been relentless lately. Between GPT Browser Atlas, Grokipedia, and the launch of Gemini 3, it's hard to keep up. As someone who loves writing code, I was just getting comfortable with Cursor when Google dropped Antigravity a few days ago.

Agent Manager

The superpower of this IDE is the Agent Manager. This functionality allows you to view and orchestrate multiple agents working simultaneously. It feels like every developer has suddenly become a Team Lead, an 'Orchestrator' than just a coder. You now have your own teammates working on different facets of your dev cycle:

  • Agent A works on frontend design.
  • Agent B writes feature code.
  • Agent C generates assets/images.
  • Agend D Debugs the code
  • Agent E creates the documentation
  • Agent F tests the app

Browser Extension

Antigravity also offers a Chrome browser extension which to help you to:

  • Capture code snippets from any webpage.
  • Generate code based on webpage content.
  • Debug code directly from the browser.
  • Control your app
  • Test your app
  • Screen record your app

This means that down the line whenever you hit a bug, just record it, and Antigravity it, rather than Googling it. It means no more back and forth, because Antigravity itself is going to read your backend log, understand your frontend experience, and then fix your bugs by itself.

Support for LLMs

The IDE supports various LLMs, but with Gemini 3 absolutely crushing the benchmarks right now, I haven't found a reason to switch models yet. Additionally Antigravity is also using various other models like Nano Banana for Image Generation, Gemini 2.5 pro UI checkpoint to actuate the browser.

Conclusion

I still won't switch over from VS Code to Antigravity just now, because I think that Google still has to enhance it further, but saying that I am impressed with version 1 will be a gross understatement.
