This project is suitable for coding without an internet connection, as most of the time we just forget an API or some function names. It can be frustrating when there's no internet access. This project simply integrates Ollama's API with VSCode to minimize the need to switch between applications. The model's responses will be temporarily stored in Markdown, and can be saved if necessary.

• ollama
• ollama-js
• llama3
