CodeAssist

A chatbot that writes and edits code in your IDE.

CodeAssist

About

CodeAssist is a natural, human-like chatbot designed to assist developers by writing and editing code directly within their IDE. Targeted for Jetbrains IDEs and Visual Studio Code, it leverages GPT-4 to provide language support, allowing users to communicate with it in a conversational manner. CodeAssist can access and modify the open file in the user's editor, execute actions such as file opening, and generate code while considering the context within other files. Though it can implement entire features with a developer's guidance, it has a non-persistent long-term memory and may introduce errors like incorrect indentation, necessitating developer oversight.
