What it does

AI chat in the Visual Studio Code side bar. Rubberduck can generate code, edit code, explain code, generate tests, find bugs, diagnose errors, and more. You can even add your own conversation templates.

Extension for Visual Studio Code - Generate code, edit code, explain code, generate tests, find bugs, diagnose errors, and even create your own conversation templates.

You can use Rubberduck with local models, e.g. CodeLlama-7B-Instruct running in Llama.cpp (see ModelFusion Llama.cpp setup ). To enable llama.cpp in Rubberduck, set the Rubberduck: Model setting to llama.cpp . Chat with Rubberduck about your code and software development topics. Rubberduck knows the editor selection at the time of conversation start. Change the selected code by instructing Rubberduck to create an edit. Provide additional instructions to Rubberduck in the chat thread. When you are happy with the changes, apply them using the "Apply" button in the diff view. Let Rubberduck identify error causes and suggest fixes to fix compiler and linter errors faster. What if you want to…from marketplace.visualstudio.com

    Hi HN, As a developer, I much prefer to write code than read other people’s code. But most projects I work on involve other developers so it’s hard to avoid. Often I find it really hard to quickly parse other people’s code so I thought maybe ChatGPT could help. ChatGPT does a really nice job of giving clear explanations when you paste in code and ask it to explain it. But the interface is a bit of a pain to use if you’re using it many times a day. It’s also hard to share explanations with co-workers. So I built whatdoesthiscodedo.com. Just paste your code and get your ChatGPT explanation and…

    I'm a big fan of the BBC podcast In Our Time -- and (like most people) I've been playing with the OpenAI APIs. In Our Time has almost 1,000 episodes on everything from Cleopatra to the evolution of teeth to plasma physics, all still available, so it's my starting point to learn about most topics. But it's not well organised. So here are the episodes sorted by library code. It's fun to explore. Web scraping is usually pretty tedious, but I found that I could send the minimised HTML to GPT-3 and get (almost) perfect JSON back: the prompt includes the Typescript definition. At the same time I…
