Introduction
Tools like ChatGPT have been a big help for programmers, offering code suggestions in chat and even directly within their coding environment. But these helpers have limitations. They can’t do everything a programmer can, like checking for errors or running the code to see if it works.
This is where AutoDev steps in to make a difference.
It’s like a super-powered coding assistant that can take action directly within your code files.
- AutoDev can edit files, search for information within the code, build and run the code, test it for errors, and even use command-line tools.
- This means it can help you complete complex coding tasks without you having to do everything manually.
In essence, AutoDev takes existing coding helper tools to the next level by giving them the ability to directly work on your code and automate more steps in the coding process.
