Continue

Continue is an open-source AI code assistant that integrates directly into VS Code and JetBrains IDEs. It provides inline code suggestions, refactoring assistance, and the ability to chat with an AI about your code without leaving your editor. You can connect it to various large language models, including both commercial options like GPT-4 and open-source alternatives, giving you flexibility over which AI backbone powers your coding work. Because it's open-source, you can self-host it, inspect the code, and modify it to suit your workflow. It's designed for developers who want AI-assisted coding without lock-in to a single commercial tool.
