🐛 BugZero AI

Your AI-powered senior dev mentor right inside VS Code!

🏆 Hackathon Project

BugZero AI is a VS Code extension that acts as your personal senior developer mentor — finding bugs in your code and explaining them in plain English, just like a real mentor would.

💡 The Problem We Solve

Most tools just tell you WHAT the bug is. BugZero AI tells you WHY it's a bug, WHEN it happens, and HOW to fix it — like a senior dev sitting next to you!

Other Tools BugZero AI
❌ "TypeError: Cannot read property" ✅ "Hey! user can be null here when the API fails..."
❌ Just highlights the error ✅ Explains WHY + gives a fix + teaches you
❌ You have to leave your editor ✅ Everything stays inside VS Code
