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!
