Code Hummer
Code Hummer is a smart coding agent for VSCode that generates functional code for multiple programming languages including Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Go, Swift, C, C++, HTML, CSS, and many more! Simply describe what you need, and Code Hummer brings it to life by intelligently analyzing your existing code context and generating the necessary code and command lines to accomplish your task.
Features
Multi-Language Support:
Easily generate code for a variety of programming languages.
Intelligent Code Generation:
Describe what you need and let Code Hummer handle the heavy lifting by understanding your code context and generating functional code and command lines.
Multiple Modes of Operation:
Agent Code:
Type a prompt; the agent analyzes your code, selects the appropriate file context, and generates the code plus the commands needed to accomplish your task.
Write Code:
Pick the files you want to use as context, and the agent writes code based on your prompt.
Chat:
Engage in a conversation about your code—ask technical questions, get help with documentation, or discuss coding challenges. The chat interface is designed to facilitate an interactive coding workflow.
AI Responses:
Receive AI responses that include the generated files. Save them one by one or all at once. The AI can also return command lines which you can execute directly from the chat interface.
Model Selection:
Choose from different AI models based on your needs.
File Attachment:
Manually attach files to provide additional context for your code generation tasks.
In "Write Code" mode, click "AI Pick Files" to let the AI select files based on your prompt.
