AI won't cope well as that file gets larger, or best hope that experimental diff feature is working well. I find stuff really breaks if you don't refactor it down.



Gemini works with large files surprisingly well, but from my limited experience, the token usage (and cost) explodes and I'm not not sure it's worth it. I try to keep my file lengths fairly small because of it, so I have more control over what is pulled into the chat context.


already broke up index.html so no longer an issue
