Aide revolutionizes the coding experience by integrating AI-powered code suggestions directly into your development environment. Designed to work seamlessly with VSCode, Aide offers fast, intelligent, and context-aware code completions that not only consider your active files but also leverage the Language Server to navigate and utilize related code across a wide range of programming languages.
With Aide, the tab key becomes your best friend, enabling you to quickly implement code suggestions that are tailored to your current context. Beyond code completion, Aide introduces an innovative chat feature that allows developers to ask questions and receive answers without leaving their coding environment. By simply pressing ⌘ + ctrl + I or ⌘ + I, you can invoke a chat conversation with Aide, making it easier to clarify doubts or explore new ideas.
Privacy is a cornerstone of Aide's design. The platform is architected to run entirely on your machine, ensuring that your code remains private and secure. For those who prefer, Aide also offers the option to host coding models on your own infrastructure, providing an additional layer of control and security.
Aide is committed to the future of open-source AI. It allows developers to choose their infrastructure provider and model, add their API key, and start coding immediately. All queries made to the model are stored locally in a SQLite database, and Aide's prompts are open source, making it an ideal choice for developers who love working with open-source models or fine-tuning them to their specific needs.
Built on top of VSCode, Aide ensures that all your settings, keybindings, and extensions work seamlessly. The platform also offers an option to import settings and keybindings from VSCode, making the transition to Aide smooth and hassle-free.
Whether you're working on a top-secret codebase or tackling the messiest project, Aide is by your side, offering the speed and knowledge of the best programmer you know. With its comprehensive suite of features, Aide is not just a tool but a partner in your coding journey, designed to enhance productivity, foster innovation, and ensure privacy.
