FRIDA GPT Extension for VS Code

An extension that allows you to leverage the power of Large Language Models for your development tasks to increase your productivity and reduce your development cycles.

💡 Note: This extension is currently in alpha development stage, please report any bugs you find in the github repository provided below.

How to use

Oneclick Functions: Select any bit of code you want to work with, once you have selected the code, from the selector menu, select the option you want to use and submit it. Once you get the result back simply copy and paste it into your IDE or import it directly and you are good to go.

Chat: On the input at the button of the window, ask the LLM any question related to programming or with your code. You can also import individual files or the entire repository you are working on, to make the result have context regaring various parts of your code.

Testing Suite: After you have selected the function you want to test, right click and select 'Frida GPT Tests' option or inside the oneclick functions menu, select the 'Testing Suite' button at the top of the window. After you opened the window, your selected text will be displayed and you will be able to select the programming language of the function, the framework you want to use to generate the tests, additional instructions you may want to add (optional), and an example test so that the response generates with a specific format (optional). After clicking the button to generate tests, your tests will begin generating and the after it finishes you will be able to create a document with the instructions and tests at the root of your selected workspace. Also the tests will be organized in Happy Paths and Edge Cases and you will be able to see the instructions on how to run the tests inside the window of 'Output Tests'.

💡 Note: You need to have a text selected for the Testing suite to open.

FRIDA Refactoring: After you have selected the code snippet you want to have refactored, right click and select 'Frida GPT Refactor' option or inside the oneclick functions menu, select the 'FRIDA Refactor' button at the top of the window. After opening the window the code will be automatically refactored, after it finishes, you will be able to select specific refactoring options for your code. After you select the button 'Generate Roadmap', you will be shown a window with the generated roadmap, it will be shown in steps and substeps, and you will be able to edit any part of this roadmap (adding steps/substeps, editing steps/substeps, deleting steps/substeps). After you confirmed the roadmap is correct for your specific case, a new refactor will be generated following the steps of the roadmap, and you will be able to insert or copy this refactor into your code.

💡 Note: You need to have a text selected for FRIDA Refactoring to open.

Code-Tracker: When you have the extension downloaded and you begin to code, the 'Code Tracker' will begin tracking your activity with the extension, the files you use, how much time are you programming, how much you are moving between files, etc. To see all of this information click the 'Frida-CodeTracker' button inside of the status bar at the lower left of the screen.
