Serena gives you symbol-level navigation, reading, and editing via tree-sitter. So you're already getting much of what CoderLM offers — plus Serena has editing capabilities(replace symbol body, insert before/after symbol, rename). GitNexus goes further with the graph/impact analysis layer on top.
I personally use Serena and GitNexus.
The case for using both
- GitNexus tells you what to change (impact analysis, dependency maps, blast radius)
- Serena makes the change (symbol-level editing, safe renames)
That's a strong workflow: understand first, then act precisely.Option 2: Take Remote Position: Most the companies don't want to interview you because they are interviewing a candidate who is going to start a year later and the chances of you working for them are 25%. So, doing a remote position is a way to convince an employer.
Option 3: Apply to a school.
